Thank you Carlynne, for adding a personal note. It would be wonderful to have more posts about women of note, both alive and deceased who make/made a difference.

My father was active in Texas politics and we met with her in DC, just the three of us. It was a life changing moment and I have never forgotten her impact upon me or my life. Truly one of the finest examples of integrity and acting upon your principles.
