Howard Robard Hughes, Jr. (September 24, 1905 – April 5, 1976) was, in his time, an aviator, engineer, industrialist, film producer and director, a palgrave, a playboy, an eccentric, and one of the wealthiest people in the world. He is famous for setting multiple, world air-speed records, building the Hughes H-1 Racer and H-4 Hercules airplanes, producing the movies Hell's Angels and The Outlaw, owning and expanding TWA, his enormous intellect[1], and for his debilitating eccentric behavior in later life. Early years Hughes was born in Houston, Texas, on 24 September or 24 December 1905. Hughes claimed his birthday was Christmas Eve, although some biographers debate his exact birth date, (according to NNDB.com, it was most likely "the more mundane date of September 24"[2] ). His parents were Allene Stone Gano Hughes (a descendant of Catherine of Valois, Dowager Queen of England, by second husband Owen Tudor) [3][4] and Howard R. Hughes, Sr., who patented the tri-cone roller bit, which 1 allowed rotary drilling for oil in previously inaccessible places. Howard R. Hughes, Sr. founded Hughes Tool Company in 1909 to commercialize this invention. Hughes grew up under the strong influence of his mother, who was obsessed with protecting her son from all germs and diseases.

  • Marilyn Monroe and Niagara
    Icons are all around us, and often we don’t even question it. So ingrained is their power their image becomes synonymous with what they represent. The Statue of Liberty, a gift from the French, has come to represent a cultural welcome, freedom from oppression. After thousands of immigrants arrivals and generations of hardship, the sighting of the Statue in New York harbor has become iconic. Fifteen minutes of fame does not an icon make. An icon requires survival of a multistep process, which pushes the image to its limits. Firstly, an icon needs to have common roots, at least one foot among the masses. This is what allows the spectator to take ownership and feel connected and makes them a viable icon. An icon cannot be a representative of a group if it is not one of what it stands for. Secondly, the icon while remaining at its base “common”, must have an exceptional, unique qualtiy whic makes it the best example of something. It is the fastest, the highest, or the furthest. After it gains popularity because of these two first qualities, it then must stand a rigorous litany of deconstruction, digestion, and interrogation, before it can reach the fourth phase of being praised, lauded and embraced as the quintessential one of its kind. The irony is that once it claims icon status, all that made it so interesting to begin with has been stripped away. It has been so contorted, manipulated as to be simplified for the masses that only that one outstanding unique quality remains, and everything else is ignored.

Howard Hughes, The Aviator by Jennifer Rosenberg Howard Hughes’ Childhood Though he grew up in a wealthy household, Howard Hughes Jr. had diffi culty focusing on school and changed schools often. Rather than sitting in a classroom, Hughes preferred to learn by tinkering with mechanical things. For instance, when his mother forbade him from having a motorcycle, he built one by building a motor and adding it to his bicycle. Hughes was a loner in his youth; with one notable exception, Hughes never really had any friends. Tragedy and Wealth When Hughes was just 16-years old, his doting mother passed away. And then not even two years later, his father also suddenly died. Howard Hughes received 75% of his father’s million-dollar estate; the other 25% went to relatives. Hughes immediately disagreed with his relatives over the running of Hughes Tool Company but being only 18-years old, Hughes could not do anything about it because he would not legally be considered an adult until age 21. Frustrated but determined, Hughes went to court and got a judge to grant him legal adulthood. He then bought out his relatives’ shares of the company. At age 19, Hughes became full owner of the company and also got married (to Ella Rice).

  • Protected Landmark Designation Report
    CITY OF HOUSTON Archaeological & Historical Commission Planning and Development Department PROTECTED LANDMARK DESIGNATION REPORT LANDMARK NAME: The Angelo and Lillian Minella House AGENDA ITEM: IV OWNER: Ben Koush HPO FILE NO.: 06PL20 APPLICANT: Ben Koush DATE ACCEPTED: Feb-13-06 LOCATION: 6328 Brookside Drive – Simms Woods Addition HAHC HEARING DATE: Feb-23-06 30-DAY HEARING NOTICE: N/A PC HEARING: Mar-02-06 SITE INFORMATION Lot 12, Block 6, Simms Woods Addition, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas. The site includes a historic one-story, concrete block residence and concrete block garage. TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Protected Landmark Designation for residence and garage. HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Minella House is a significant example of modern, residential architecture as it evolved in mid- twentieth century Houston. It is significant because of its unusual all masonry construction, contemporary design by Houston architect, Allen R. Williams, Jr. It is an example of the Century Built Homes, variations on a standark design, of which the Minella House seemed to be most fully resolved. Its owners, Angelo and Lillian Minella, owned and operated a plumbing supply company in the East End for decades. HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE Lillian and Angelo Minella were originally from the Boston area. Minella worked as a plumber at 366-374 Washington Street in the 1930s in the Brighton Center, Massachusetts commercial area, which had a large Italian-American population.i As late as 1942 Angelo and Lillian were listed in the Essex County City Directory as living on Stanwood Avenue in Gloucester, Massachusetts.ii The Minellas probably left for Texas shortly thereafter.
