Trivia

A native of Del Rio, Texas, Tex grew up on the family ranch, where he learned to be a real cowboy. Tex is semi-retired now, and raises Quarter Horses on his ranch near Wickenburg, Arizona, but he still finds time to make appearances at film festivals, benefits and nostalgia concerts whenever possible. Tex has at least two CDs available, "Song of the Saddle" and "Rodeo Cowboy". He is known as the "Rhinstone Ranger" and claims to be the last 'Lone Ranger', but ran into problems (as did even Clayton Moore) from the owners of the Lone Ranger trademark.

Tex's current wife, Claudia J. Edwards was a successful author of Fantasy novels, including, "Eldrie the Bastard Princess, Bright & Shining Tiger, & Horsewoman in God's Land.
