John began a career in journalism during his high school days when he served in a variety of roles, including news and sports reporter, for the Duncan Banner, a daily newspaper in his small Oklahoma hometown. He was the youngest sports editor in the newspaper's history by the time he attended the University of Oklahoma on a journalism scholarship. He graduated in 1978 with a bachelor of arts and sciences degree in journalism. Dwyer further developed his journalistic skills in radio as a play‐by‐play football and basketball announcer for several radio stations. He won the coveted position of sports director for the University of Oklahoma's 100,000 watt KGOU‐FM radio station. For seven years, he provided live, on‐air reports to America's largest radio networks of University of Oklahoma college football games. Except for a year in England during 6th grade, John lived in the Sooner State for 28 years before returning to Dallas in 1986 to attend Dallas Theological Seminary where he earned his Master of Biblical Studies. While there, Dwyer worked part time on the sports staff of The Dallas Times Herald, which at the time owned one of the five largest circulations of any daily newspaper in Texas. It was in Texas that he also met and married his wife Grace in 1988 and settled down to start his family.

A seventh-generation Texan, Murchison (commonly known as Bill) was graduated from the University of Texas in 1963 and received a master of arts degree from Stanford University in 1964. Besides There’s More to Life Than Politics, he has published Reclaiming Morality in America, with foreword by Bill Bennett. The book he has just finished, on the crisis in the Episcopal Church, will appear in 2007. His writings are found in publications like the Wall Street Journal, the Weekly Standard, Human Life Review, First Things, Touchstone, and National Review. His syndicated column, distributed by Creators since the ‘90s, began in 1981. Married for 32 years, the Murchisons live in Dallas, in a saltbox house designed (and partly executed) by Nancy Murchison. The once-a-week commute to Waco takes less than two hours. The Murchisons have two grown sons and one new daughter-in-law, as well as a taste for wine, opera, and Texas art. They participate actively in community affairs and in the life of their Episcopal parish and diocese..
