| Info | Stephen A. Womack, 52, is a native of Russellville, Arkansas. Born February 18, 1957, he spent most of his youthful years in Moberly, Missouri where he attended K-10th grade.
In 1973, Womack’s family moved to Russellville, Arkansas where he finished high school in 1975 and received his bachelor’s degree from Arkansas Tech University in 1979.
In the fall of 1979, Womack relocated to Rogers where he and his father established KURM Radio. Womack managed KURM from 1979-1990. In August of 1990, Womack accepted an assignment with the Army National Guard at the University of Arkansas. Womack served as the executive officer of the U.S. Army ROTC program at the U of A from 1990-1996.
After a brief return to broadcasting in 1996, Womack was hired by Merrill Lynch in Rogers where he became a financial consultant in the spring of 1997.
On November 3, 1998, Womack was elected Mayor of Rogers. He was re-elected without opposition in November 2002 and again in 2006. He is currently serving his third term as mayor of Arkansas’ ninth largest city.
Womack’s civic service includes two separate terms on the Rogers City Council. He has also been active in the Rogers Chamber of Commerce as an officer and director, and served two terms as president of the Rogers-Lowell United Fund in the 80’s. Womack has served on the Northwest Arkansas Community College Task Force, St. Mary’s Hospital Foundation, Rogers Parks Commission, coached several youth sports teams, and participated in numerous other civic activities. Womack was chairman of the Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission from 2003-2005. In 2007, the March of Dimes honored Mayor Womack as its Citizen of the Year.
At the state level, Governor Mike Huckabee appointed Womack to the Arkansas Commission on National and Community Service in 1999. Womack served as chairman of the commission in 2001.
Womack is also a Colonel in the Army National Guard. Commissioned in 1979 at Arkansas Tech University, Colonel Womack currently commands the 233rd Infantry Regiment (RTI) headquartered at Camp Joseph T. Robinson, North Little Rock, Arkansas.
Following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, while commanding 2nd Battalion, 153rd Infantry Regiment of Arkansas’ 39th Infantry Brigade, his unit was called to active duty for service with the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO), Sinai, Egypt. His task force was trained at Fort Carson, Colorado and deployed overseas in January 2002. On 13 January 2002, TF 2-153 became the first pure National Guard unit to receive the mission as the United States Battalion (US BATT) in the MFO. It also marked the first time in the 35-year history of the 39th Brigade that a battalion was mobilized for overseas duty.
Womack is a graduate of the United States Army Armor School, the United States Army Infantry Advanced Course, the United States Army Command and General Staff College, and the National Security Course. His decorations include the Meritorious Service Medal (with oak leaf cluster), the Army Commendation Medal, the Army Achievement Medal, and the Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary and Service Medals.
Womack is married to the former Terri Williams of DeWitt, Arkansas. They have three sons and attend The Church at Pinnacle Hills in Rogers.
