The Houston Post has an article "Making of a Politician" by Jane Grandolfo, about Bob Lanier. The article is in the April 26, 1992 paper, beginning on A1 with the rest on A19. The article is not available online. In the Houston area, the Houston Public Library Central Library Jesse H. Jones Building microfilm desk has a copy of this article. If you wish to research it, ask the employee for the microfilm of the article, while mentioning the article name and the date. WhisperToMe (talk) 06:46, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I also found https://www.houstonpress.com/news/the-good-the-bad-the-imprisoned-6566045 which argued that city council became a "rubber stamp" under his tenure WhisperToMe (talk) 02:12, 22 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
