Program Details
Held on the first Wednesday of every month, High Noon Talks highlight interesting and often untold topics through this casual lunch-time lecture.
Shortly before his death in 2015, historian Norman Brown completed Biscuits, the Dole, and Nodding Donkeys, which picks up just as the Democratic Party was poised for a bruising fight in the 1930 primary. Join the book's editor Rachel Ozanne for a talk on a wild era in Texas politics and this little-known history whose impact continues to ripple at the Capitol.
