Rachel Silber Devlin has written the most in-depth biography or her late father, the towering figure John Silber.

Her new memoir is entitled “Snapshots of My Father, John Silber,” and it tells the whole story of the man in Texas who overcame a physical handicap to become a leader in higher education.  He was a complex public figure who provoked debate.  But he was also a dedicated Dad and Husband to his devoted family.  Rachel’s story is an eloquent account of an authentic man of principle who never backed down.
