About the Author: Robert Godwin Robert Godwin traveled the world as an Air Force "brat” before graduating high school in Bryan, Texas. His own career in the Air Force lasted two years at the Air Force Academy before leaving due to a knee injury. Limping into Austin, he attended UT as a Middle Eastern Studies major. His photojournalism career began with part-time work leading to a full time position at the Austin Citizen daily paper.

He then added the West Austin News 1987-2011 as his primary venue. He continues covering the social/charity scene as a freelancer for the Austin American-Statesman and as a media consultant for the St David’s Foundation.
