Best Texacana Journalist

Anne Dingus

Who has traveled deep in the heart of Texas and returned alive to tell the tall tale? That would be none other than Texas Monthly’s resident Texacana specialist and renegade historian Anne Dingus. Why is everything, including state pride, bigger in Texas? Her Lone Star-spangled articles provide tantalizing clues to the mystery that is Texas history. From down-home jokes and sayings to Fess Parker and cowgirl biographies, she has hog-tied our imagination and made us proud to call this wild west our home.
