In partnership with KERA and the Center for Presidential History at SMU, The Sixth Floor Museum invites you to a screening of the director's cut of "Shaking it Up: The Life and Times of Liz Carpenter," an intimate look at the trailblazing career and influential life of journalist, author, humorist, political activist, and proud Texan. Carpenter served as a key aide to Vice President Lyndon Johnson, chief of staff/press secretary for Lady Bird Johnson, and later as an inspirational leader for women’s equality. A conversation will follow between film director and Liz Carpenter’s daughter, Christy Carpenter, and Dr. Elizabeth Rees, a Postdoctoral Fellow at SMU’s Center for Presidential History. They’ll discuss the film and Liz’s 50+ years of friendship with Lady Bird Johnson.
