Geo asked, "Where are the pictures of the Johnsons' private quarters at the Museum? These are more important to see than pictures of the Oval Office; everyone knows what the Oval Office looks like."
So these are especially for Geo, photos of the LBJ residence on the upper floor of the Library. This room opens to the balconey in view of the UT - Austin stadium.
Here's a photo of Mrs. Johnson's office. We were told that this is just how it was left on the very last day that she worked here:
I also took a photo of the picture of President Johnson with the news anchor Walter Cronkite. It is often said that when Walter Cronkite publicly began to turn against the Viet Nam war, that was the real turning point of Middle America turning against the war and President Johnson's policies.
Finally, LBJ himself - and his hat, a man called "Bigger than Life."
