The Lion of Texas - A Conversation with Sam Houston

A hero of our state’s battle for independence from Mexico, Houston served as president of the Republic of Texas, governor of the State of Texas (as well as Tennessee), and U.S. senator for the State of Texas. He also has the distinction of being the only Confederate state governor to oppose secession from the Union and was thus removed from office. President John F. Kennedy even included a chapter on Sam Houston in his Pulitzer Award-winning Profiles In Courage.
Today, another Texan and namesake of Sam Houston presents “The Lion of Texas-A Conversation with Sam Houston,” a two-act one-man play that allows the audience to step into the home of Sam Houston and “feel” the very substance and nature of the famous Texas legend.
