Garner is the creator and host of The Daytripper<\/em> Texas travel show airing on PBS stations nationwide. Born in nearby Comanche and raised in Port Neches, his love for storytelling began around a Boy Scout campfire, toting his grandfather\u2019s VHS camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He earned a degree in radio-television-film from UT Austin and went on to graduate first in his class from Baylor Law School. After practicing law for three years, he decided to follow his passion and simultaneously inspire folks to appreciate the beauty, history and food of Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Daytripper<\/em>, now in its 13th season, has won 12 Lone Star Emmys, including four for Outstanding Program Host. Garner also shares his stories via monthly columns in Texas Highways<\/em> and Texas Co-Op Power<\/em> magazines. His full-service commercial production company, Hogaboom Road, Inc., has clients ranging from Smokey Bear to Best Western.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His Tarleton appearance is sponsored by the digital media studies program, the Department of Visual Arts and Design, and the College of Liberal and Fine Arts.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
