Consistently ranked as one of the nation’s most impressive first ladies, Lady Bird Johnson was the rock on which her husband built his career. The shy girl from Texas earned two college degrees at a time when even one was an achievement. As an adult she used her intelligence, strength of character and personal drive to carve her own place in American history. She not only managed successful businesses and political campaigns but was a strong and early advocate for environmental causes.
