Bonham, Texas -- Texas Historical Commission’s Sam Rayburn House State Historic Site and the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History’s Sam Rayburn Museum have teamed up for an ongoing exploration into the life and career of one of the most influential Americans in the 20th Century. Our quarterly webinar series will delve into specific facets of Sam Rayburn’s personal life and political career, from Mr. Sam’s family to historic pieces of legislation he was instrumental in passing.

Quite possibly the most formidable political duo of the 20th Century, Sam Rayburn and Lyndon Johnson were a powerhouse team in Congress. With Rayburn as Speaker of the House and Johnson Majority Leader of the Senate, it seemed there was nothing the two couldn’t accomplish. But how did the two Texans’ relationship grow from mentor and protégé to the driving force behind 1950s legislation?

Join us on February 17 at 2:00 p.m. as we present Sam Rayburn History: Exploring the Rayburn-Johnson Dynamic.
