In this memoir of the first ninety-seven years of her life (she lived to age 107), Bess recalls going to college “on a pair of mules” and remembers Clark Gable, Lyndon Johnson and Eleanor Roosevelt. Her determination, courage and hard work, plus caring family and friends, propelled Bess past enormous obstacles, including poverty and a hearing impairment. She became a pioneering Texas newswoman, taught journalism, wrote screenplays and ran an ad agency. She is a member of the Texas Women’s Hall of Fame.

Two scholarships are awarded in her name annually, one to an upper-level journalism major and another for writers age 40 and older. See bwsfund.org for more scholarship information.
