Marjorie Herrera Lewis

Marjorie Herrera Lewis knew early on she wanted a career related to sports. After several years at small newspapers, at age 27, she began working at the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Soon after, she was named a beat writer for the Dallas Cowboys and eventually joined The Dallas Morning News sportswriting staff. Throughout her career, she covered college and professional sports, including the Texas Rangers, Dallas Mavericks, professional tennis and golf. She also covered the Super Bowl, Wimbledon, the NCAA men’s basketball tournament and several college bowl games. While writing When the Men Were Gone, she became inspired to try her hand at coaching football and was added to the Texas Wesleyan University football coaching staff last December. Lewis was assigned to work with defensive backs on the field and with the entire team as an academic adviser. She is married and has two grown daughters and one son-in-law.
