Description

Born November 30, 1954, Ruth Sachs is a third generation Houstonian (a rare breed). She knew the Houston that existed before urban sprawl, the Houston of first generation immigrant families and kids playing in the street.

As long as she can remember, she's been writing. "It was so exciting when my poem won first prize in a city-wide contest when I was in second grade. Something special about having something you wrote posted publicly for everybody to read."

In junior high school, Ruth wrote for her school newspaper. "The definite highlight of that experience was the interview with Chris Gilbert. He had just come off a record-setting season at the University of Texas, the first running back in NCAA history to rush for 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons. OK, so 'girls' aren't supposed to know that kind of trivia, but his brother Brad was one of my best friends those days. How else would a seventh-grader land an interview like that?"
