Overview
Named for the 20th Governor of Texas, Jim Hogg, who kept a suite at The Driskill throughout his tenure as governor (1890 – 1895), the suite also has a more recent political history. Lyndon Baines Johnson received the successful results of his 1948 Senate run in the Jim Hogg, and returned to await the successful results of his 1964 Presidential re-election campaign here as well. In 1934, the Texas Rangers convened in the Jim Hogg Parlor before pursuing notorious crime duo Bonnie & Clyde.
