Cary Clack has captured the hearts and minds of Texans since the
mid-1990s, gaining a national reputation as an incisive and
sensitive journalist and developing a significant following as a
columnist. Originally from San Antonio, he worked with the Martin
Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change in Atlanta
(writing CNN commentaries for Coretta Scott King) to hone his
communication skills and broaden his social sensibilities.
Returning to his hometown, he quickly became known as a writer who
profiled everyday heroes and captured stories unique to the Texas
experience, adding a critical local perspective to national news.
His columns are infused with a sense of humility and a keen
examination of the humanness in others. Following sixteen years as
a journalist, Clack pursued interests in politics, social policy,
and service, including work with the mayor of San Antonio, U.S.
congressman Joaquin Castro, and others. More Finish Lines to Cross
is a collection of Clackâs best short- and long-form columns
since his return to the San Antonio Express-News in 2014. It
includes more than eighty pieces about the issues of the day, from
Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and the war in Ukraine to the impact of
COVID, the death of George Floyd, and the mass shooting of
schoolchildren in Uvalde, Texas. Along the way we meet the people
who influenced Clack, which in turn reminds us to reflect on how we
become the people we are and what inspires us to be better members
of our communities.
