  • From Galveston Heiress To Hands-On Philanthropist
    Oct 17 2025

    A vivid portrait of Betty Brown emerges: a bold Galveston socialite who turned privilege into service, steered a women’s home with hands-on grit, and shaped civic life before and after the 1900 storm. We trace the woman behind the legend, separating folklore from the record while honoring the force of her will.

    • family roots, Ashton Villa, and early wealth
    • European art study and expanding worldview
    • public image, gossip, and social daring
    • the 1900 hurricane and relief efforts
    • leadership at the Letitia Rosenberg Home
    • inventive fundraising and Angora cats
    • defense of the tango and cultural pushback
    • health decline, resignation, and tributes
    • folklore, hauntings, and enduring legacy

  • Two women from one island changed how America moved to rhythm and blues
    Oct 10 2025

    Two Galveston originals reshaped American rhythm and blues: Camille Howard with boogie-woogie fire and Esther Phillips with a deep, briny voice that bent genres. We trace their arcs from island roots to national stages, through reinvention, withdrawal, and lasting legacy.

    • R&B’s rise
    • Camille Howard’s piano power and Los Angeles breakthrough
    • partnership with Roy Milton and Specialty Records era
    • hits, changing industry, and a faith-led exit from the spotlight
    • Esther Phillips’ early discovery by Johnny Otis and chart ascent
    • addiction, return to Houston, and a patient comeback
    • Release Me, Atlantic years, and BBC performance
    • cross-genre mastery and late recognition in the Blues Hall of Fame
    • shared island roots and distinct paths shaping modern American music

  • Charlotte, Under the Microscope
    Oct 3 2025

    We trace Dr. Charlotte Schaefer’s path from standout UTMB student to Texas trailblazer in public health, teaching, and women-led enterprise. A hookworm breakthrough, a sister-run pharmacy, and a fierce respect for detail show how small choices shape big outcomes.

    • UTMB’s early years and the barrier for women
    • why “M. Charlotte” matters for historical research
    • the 1901 hookworm identification and public health impact
    • becoming UTMB’s first female faculty and later full professor
    • teaching histology with rigor through storms and pandemics
    • the Schaefer sisters’ sterilized, women-run pharmacy in San Antonio
    • community care, mutual aid, and ethical business practice
    • sudden passing and the legacy of precision, service, and courage
