Former Texas Secretary of State Elton Bomer has been hired to be the president of four insurance subsidiaries of the Dallas-based Heritage Guaranty Holdings Group.
The four companies are American Reserve Life Insurance Co., Liberty Bankers Life Insurance Co., Mid-Continent Preferred Life Insurance Co., and Winnfield Life Insurance Co.
Mr. Bomer is to join the companies Nov. 1, according to an announcement Tuesday by Bradford Phillips, the president of Heritage Guaranty. Mr. Bomer spent the past two years as a business and governmental affairs consultant in the Austin office of the Gardere Wynne Sewell LLP law firm.
He was appointed Texas secretary of state in 1999 by then-Gov. George W. Bush, who had named him the state insurance commissioner in 1995. He also served terms in the state House of Representatives from 1981 to 1985 and 1991 to 1995.
