Who was Texas Attorney General John Ben Shepperd? What did he stand for? What did he accomplish? What is his legacy? The Americanism of John Ben Shepperd answers those questions and more. John Ben Shepperd (JBS) was a powerhouse of ideas and action, all focused on the betterment of Texas by cultivating leadership in its youth. Beginning his professional career upon graduation from the University of Texas at Austin with a law degree in 1941, he served his country in World War II, returning home to begin his political career. John Ben was a firebrand of a public speaker and he knew how to excite people to action. Expertly organizing them into committees and groups, he orchestrated a great deal of swift progress for Texas during his 1953-57 tenure as Attorney General.
