Curatorial Note:

After recording an oral history with Dr. Robert Walker in March 2009, I invited him back to the Museum a few months later as part of our Living History summer series for students participating in Education In Action's Lone Star Leadership Camp program. Unfortunately, this ended up being Dr. Walker's only Museum program. He passed away on April 28, 2011. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
