In 1982, Gene Phillips of Dallas County took control of an oil and gas company through Southmark. "The gas company was small but after I took control of the company it was valued at $1 billion in less than 10 years," says Gene Phillips of Dallas County. This is one of the many companies added to Southmark's conglomerate of businesses.

While Gene Phillips of Dallas County spent many of his early years investing, he spent nearly as many working as an executive. "I've held executive positions for many different companies.
