Heights2Bastrop Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Anyone have this book yet? My mom got one for Christmas. It’s pretty interesting, and full if photos, some of which I have never seen before. One in particular is of a young woman who was a dancer, who is in costume and barefoot, lying prone, and looking very seductive. She gave up dancing and went into the family business – banking. You’d never guess who it was. The book was written by Mary Sloan and the Houston Heights Association, and can be purchased from them. I highly recommend the book, especially if you’re an ol’ Heights boy like I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiko Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Anne, yes. My mistake,Sorry, not trying to be pedantic, she's just fairly well known in the neighborhood and thought it might be a draw for some people. Do you have any pics from your childhood of the neighborhood, H2B? That would be interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heights2Bastrop Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 Tiko, I was looking directly at the name from the HHA website, yet still manager to get the name wrong in the post. I am long in the tooth, and short in the attention span.I do have photos from in the Heights area, but none that would be "of the Heights", exactly. All of my Heights snapshots are of the mental variety. Lotsa great images there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
