In honor of the 100th anniversary of the Amarillo Globe-News, an exhibit in the Mary E. Bivins Gallery from March 7 until September 27, 2009, will follow the history of the newspaper to the present. Today’s Amarillo Globe-News is the lone survivor of more than 30 newspapers published in the city since its founding in 1887.
