Curatorial Note:

Fort Worth political leader James C. "Jim" Wright, Jr. (left) represented Texas's 12th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1955 to 1989. He was the 56th Speaker of the House, serving under Presidents Reagan and Bush from 1987 to 1989. Mr. Wright passed away on May 6, 2015.Ralph W. Yarborough was a U.S. Senator from Texas, serving from 1957 to 1971. At the time of the assassination, he was the leader of the state Democratic Party's liberal or progressive wing and was often at odds with the more conservative Governor John Connally. President Kennedy's trip to Texas in 1963 was an attempt to ease the friction between these two political factions. Yarborough passed away in 1996. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
