Ann Richards
Ann Richards was the 45th governor of Texas, serving from 1991 to 1995. She was known for her vibrant personality and sharp wit, famously quipping, 'If you don't have a seat at the table, you're probably on the menu.' A member of the Democratic Party, Richards was a trailblazer for women in politics and was notable for her advocacy on social issues, education, and women's rights. Her tenure was marked by efforts to improve the state's economy and education system, and she gained national prominence for her keynote address at the 1988 Democratic National Convention. After her governorship, she continued to be active in politics and public speaking until her passing in 2006.
