Abstract	The year 2021 marked the 10-year anniversary of the Texas Association for Literacy Education (TALE). The current study is a historical inquiry that explores the following research questions: (a) between the years 2011 and 2021, what contributions gave value to the mission of promoting literacy and enhancing the lives of all Texas citizens personally, socially and economically, and (b) who have been the characters of this narrative, who specifically has been influenced, and where have these contributions been made? The historical inquiry was informed by data sources including the following: archived newsletters, yearbooks, Executive Board meeting minutes, personal communications, journal issues, the organization's website, and personal interviews. Findings of the historical inquiry are reported as a narrative account of TALE's history between the years 2011-2021. The year 2022 is also partly included as that was the year that TALE publicly celebrated the 10th year. The resulting narrative is arranged chronologically and by themed subsections according to the Presidents and Chairs who have led TALE. (As Provided).
