Many Texans may not have heard of Mary Frances Tarlton "Sissy" Farenthold. She was a legendary environmentalist in the state. She also ran for governor – twice – and was even a nominee for U.S. vice president. This episode focuses on Farenthold’s environmental work, with a focus on the creation of Mustang Island, an 18-mile stretch of beach that runs from Corpus Christi to Port Aransas. Athena Hawkins recounts the story of her impact within and beyond that stretch of beach.
