#FUNFACTFRIDAY In 1989, the mini-series Lonesome Dove premiered on CBS. The series won 7 Emmy awards. The characters were so compelling and accurate that some of the actors/actresses were appointed honorary TX Rangers. Which actors/actresses received this honor?

The correct answer is William Witliff. He wrote the screenplay for the mini-series that premiered in 1989. Visit the museum this weekend to see the newest exhibit, Lonesome Dove, and be sure to join us at the Beltonian to view the first part of this great series.

#FUNFACTFRIDAY Larry McMurty wrote a novel set in the last years of the Old West centered on retired TX Rangers to show the true hardships of the era. In 1989, it was made into a TV mini-series starring Robert Duvall & Tommy Lee Jones. Who wrote the screenplay for the film?
