From financiers of the Texas Revolution to contestants in the Pageant of Pulchritude, the shores of Galveston enticed and cultivated a host of memorable men and women. Bishops and bookies, concert pianists and cotton tycoons–all left an indelible print on their remarkable home. Magnolia Willis Sealy and the members of the Women’s Health Protective Association reshaped the ravages of the Great Storm into the glories of the Oleander City. The benevolent activism of Norris Wright Cuney transformed the social landscape, while actress Charlotte Walker and painter Boyer Gonzales Sr. extended the island’s cultural reach abroad. Jan Johnson keeps company with Galveston’s most fascinating characters.
