A Roast and Toast of Richard Murray
On April 9, the Hobby School community honored Richard Murray, whose 60-year career has informed public policy and political analysis and inspired careers in public service. Houston Mayor John Whitmire, Texas State Sen. Carol Alvarado and Texas State Rep. Jolanda Jones joined other speakers in reflecting on his influence as a mentor, educator and trusted voice in Texas politics. The event benefited the 2027 Hobby Fellows program, continuing Murray’s impact on policymaking through future public servants.
