UNT alumni who’ve made names for themselves are featured in two recent books by alumni. Gayla Brooks Kokel (’69) co-wrote Oak Cliff (Arcadia Publishing), which tells the history of the Dallas community through more than 200 vintage and recent photographs. Included are some famous former North Texas students who were graduates of Oak Cliff’s Adamson High School: singers Michael Martin Murphey and Ray Wylie Hubbard and Grammy-winning opera tenor Hank Price (’69). UNT at Dallas also gets a mention.
