Super Bowl-winning coach Tony Dungy was named to TIME Magazine’s “100 Most Influential People in the World,” a list that also includes the likes of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Pope Benedict XVI, Supreme Court Justice John Roberts, and Queen Elizabeth II.

In July, Tyndale House will publish Dungy’s memoir, Quiet Strength. Co-written with Nathan Whitaker, and featuring a foreword by actor Denzel Washington and Washington’s wife Pauletta, the book describes Dungy’s upbringing, athletic career, family life, and coaching career, as well as his spiritual journey.

Dungy became the first African-American to coach a Super Bowl champion when the Indianapolis Colts defeated the Chicago Bears, 29-17, in Super Bowl XLI (41) in Miami on February 4, 2007.
