    Margaret Cousins: An Inventory of Her Papers at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center Descriptive Summary Creator Cousins, Margaret, 1905- Title Margaret Cousins Papers Dates: 1921-73 Extent 35 boxes (14.5 linear feet) Abstract: The papers of Texas writer and editor Margaret Cousins include correspondence and manuscripts reflecting her career, particularly as contributor to women's magazines, as editor of Lyndon Johnson's memoir, and as senior editor at Doubleday Publishing Company. RLIN Record # TXRC91-A12 Language English. Access Open for Research Administrative Information Acquisition Gift, 1973 Processed by Donald Firsching, Kendra Trachta, Miriam Wilde, 1990. Repository: Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas at Austin Cousins, Margaret, 1905- Biographical Sketch Born in Munday, Knox County, Texas, on January 26, 1905, Margaret Cousins was the first child of Walter Henry and Sue Margaret Reeves Cousins. Largely through the influence of her father, Margaret displayed an interest in pursuing a literary career at a young age. Upon graduating from Bryan Street High School in Dallas, Texas, in 1922, Cousins entered the University of Texas at Austin with a major in English literature. When Cousins left the university in 1926, she found employment as an apprentice on her father's Southern Pharmaceutical Journal in Dallas, advancing to associate editor in 1930 and editor in 1935. Cousins moved to New York City in 1937 to work as assistant editor of the Pictorial Review. When the Pictorial Review ceased publication in 1939, she began work as a copy writer in the promotional department of Hearst Magazines, Inc. Over the next few years she read manuscripts on a free-lance basis and wrote fashion captions for Heart's Good Housekeeping, to which she had been a contributor as early as 1930, when her poem “Indian Summer” appeared in the November issue.

Axelrod The role men and women play in history can be viewed from two perspec­ tives. Either men determine history by their actions or history determines the actions of men. At times a combination of the two may take place. The relationship of Rabbi Henry Cohen 0863-1952) of Galveston and the Galves­ ton Immigration Movement, often called the Galveston Plan, was a case of combining these two historical perspectives. The necessity of a nation and a religious group to change its immigration patterns coupled with the extra­ ordinary humanitarian efforts of a great man created the product of an innova­ tive, well-planned program. This paper will examine the workings of the Galveston Plan and the role Henry Cohen played in making that plan a partial success.

  • Downtown Houston Market Update
    3Q 2018 Downtown Houston Market Update Central Houston, Inc. and Houston Downtown Management District It has been over a year since Hurricane Harvey made its landfall in the 3Q KEY HIGHLIGHTS midst of recovery from the worst energy downturn in the last three decades. Market and economic indicators strongly suggest that the downturn is finally over, and robust growth has returned to Houston’s 10 economy. Oil is trading at a stable $70/barrel range, above break-even New retailers added cost for most producers. Driven by the rebound in commodity prices, in 3Q growing global demand and OPEC production cuts, exploration budgets and drilling permits have risen dramatically, resulting in a rebound in the rig count and more companies reporting profits than losses. This in turn is boosting oil and gas-related sectors including manufacturing and professional services. The Houston region’s employment growth rate of 4.3 precent for the 12 months ending September, surpassed all other MSA’s in the country. Though bolstered by the oil industry recovery and Hurricane Harvey job gains, employment gains have primarily been within professional and business services, and not in energy. The energy sector’s recovery has not translated into positive office leasing, as a leaner, technologi- cally-advanced and more efficient energy industry emerged from the downturn, requiring a smaller workforce. Ironically, the industry is also facing a talent shortage, in spite of the fact that it has not hired close to half as many employees as were laid off: of the 93,900 jobs lost from the peak to the trough of the downturn (Dec.

  • 2020 Genesis G70 Collects Good Housekeeping Award for Second Consecutive Year
    2020 GENESIS G70 COLLECTS GOOD HOUSEKEEPING AWARD FOR SECOND CONSECUTIVE YEAR FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., April 30, 2020 – Genesis today announced that its entry-luxury G70 was recognized as Good Housekeeping magazine’s 2020 Best New Family Car Award Winner in the Luxury Sedan category. This accolade represents the 21st award from a major, well- respected third-party since the G70’s launch in the Fall of 2018. “The G70 is the spark in our lineup. It’s the spring in our step,” said Mark Del Rosso, President and CEO of Genesis Motor North America. “So we just love it when third parties like Good Housekeeping get to experience the same feeling and share that with their audience.” “It’s a super fun-to-drive, upscale vehicle…,” wrote Good Housekeeping editors. “The exterior is designed to get noticed – and if you get behind the wheel, you’ll notice it does turn heads.” As the first Genesis model in the highly competitive entry-luxury sedan segment, G70 outperforms legacy luxury sport sedans with driver-focused performance. Since its debut, the G70 has been named the 2019 North American Car of the Year, the MotorTrend 2019 Car of the Year, as well as a category winner in the Car and Driver 2019 10Best awards, among more than a dozen other significant third-party industry awards. G70’s ability to acquire such a wide array of prominent industry awards is proof it resets benchmarks and expectations among luxury sport sedans, with the holistic integration of performance, refined luxury, aerodynamic design and an extensive array of passive and active safety equipment available.
