Biography   Brenda Polsky Morgan Childs

Obituary: "Clients Included Richard Nixon, John Wayne, Bob Hope, Barbara Jordan," by Patrict George, American Statesman, Sunday, November 09, 2008 

In 1963, future President Richard Nixon attended a Texas vs. Arkansas football game in Austin. Wanting to give a gift to Nixon, then-U.S. Sen. John Tower of Texas commissioned Austin artist Brenda Polsky Morgan Childs to paint a scene from the game, which he then sent to Nixon. 

The painting was flown to Washington first class, but she flew coach, Childs' friends recall. 

It was a perfect example of how Childs' talent at painting — which brought her famous clients like John Wayne, Bob Hope and Barbara Jordan — never overshadowed her humility.
