Author Rachel Silber Devlin is one of John Silber's six daughters. As a wife, a mother, and a homemaker, she always had a strong sense of who she was apart from any labels.

Devlin says that she sometimes feels like she and her dad grew up together because she knew him so well from a time when he was young and still learning how to make his way in the world.

She divides her time between her homes in Texas and Massachusetts, the states where her children and grandchildren live.
