Located in the plaza in the Heritage Society complex adjacent to Sam Houston Park, the bronze statue John B. Connally was created by his daughter, Sharon Connally Ammann. It stands on a granite base incised with his name and the dates of his birth and death. Connally appears to be striding forward, with a Stetson in one hand and the other hand in his pocket. A native Texan, Connally served as Governor of Texas from 1963-1969. He had previously worked for then-representative Lyndon B. Johnson and served under General Dwight Eisenhower, President Kennedy, and President Nixon. He was wounded in the Kennedy assassination. Among the artist Connally Ammann’s artistic oeuvre is a life-sized full figure sculpture of former Texas Lt. Governor Bob Bullock, which stands at the entrance to the Texas State Museum in Austin. She also created a bust for the former First Lady, Lady Bird Johnson, among many others bust sculptures.
