Biographical Note
Mrs. Eleanor Tinsley's first elective office was for the school board
of the Houston Independent School District (HISD) from
1969 to 1973. Mrs. Tinsley was born
Eleanor Burleson in Dallas, Texas, on
October 31, 1926. A graduate of Baylor
University, she moved with her husband to Houston in
1953. Before her four years on the board,
she participated actively in many civic, social, and church affairs,
concentrating on youth drug abuse. Mrs. Tinsley was elected to the school board
as a member of a four-candidate slate chosen by Citizens for Good Schools
(CGS). During her board tenure the HISD was confronted with several important
issues including desegregation, drug abuse, and creation of the Houston
Community College.
In
1979, she was elected to an at-large
position for the city council of Houston, Texas. Mrs. Tinsley was subsequently
reelected as council member and served from
1979 to 1995, leaving office due to
term limitations. She has initiated much of Houston's legislation involving
anti-crime measures, city administration and planning, and economic
development. Mrs. Tinsley sponsored many campaigns for the citizens of Houston,
covering neighborhood concerns and community development, health and safety,
minorities and women, and quality-of-life (environmental) issues.
Scope and Contents
The collection contains papers such as correspondence, publications,
newspaper and magazine articles, minutes, agenda binders, card files, and
scrapbooks that detail Mrs. Tinsley's involvement in the HISD school board and
her time as Houston City Council member. One-fourth of the collection is
related to the school board years and the remainder covers the city council
years. There are also nine existing oral history interviews included in the collection. The interviews were conducted between 1974 and 1991 and are on cassette tape.
Arrangement
The collection generally follows the original order set up by Mrs.
Tinsley's office staff and the basic approach was alphabetically by subject.
The collection is divided into five subgroups. The first three are school board
related and the last two are city council related: (I). Citizens for Good
Schools Committee (CGS), which is divided into 3 categories; (II). HISD School
Board years, which are divided into 18 categories; (III). Harris County Child
Welfare Board (HCCW); (IV). Houston City Council years, which are divided into
17 categories; and (V). Houston City Council agenda binders, ranging from 1980
to 1995.
Access Restrictions
None.
Use Restrictions
Oral history interviews are available for use by appointment only.
