Texas Guinan Biography

It`s hard to be very specific about any dates or events early in the life of Texas Guinan. She loved publicity and frequently improvised facts about herself when she felt they made better stories than the truth. She was born in Waco, Texas, but likely not on a ranch as she often claimed. She was active in vaudeville and theater, and was in many movies (often as the gun-toting hero in silent westerns, more than a match for any man). In the prohibition era, Tex`s talents for entertainment and self-promotion came together for a successful career as the hostess in night clubs and speakeasies, where her job was to help people have a good time.

Trivia and Quotes

Quotes
  • "Hello, Suckers!"
    Trivia
  • Was future journalist/producer Lowell Thomas`s Sunday school teacher when Thomas was a boy in Victor, Colorado. They remained lifelong friends even after her latter-day notoriety.
  • Notorious in the eyes of the feds who wanted to stop her flaggrant violations of `prohibition` laws, she fervantly denied that her joints sold liquor despite contrary evidence. She avoided lengthy time behind bars and had all charges subsequently dropped because the feds couldn`t prove she owned the routinely-raided clubs. The Depression put a real bite in her profits and she died in 1933, not the wealthy gal she used to be.
  • The character "Guinan", bartender of the Ten Forward lounge on "Star Trek: The Next Generation" (1987) played by Whoopi Goldberg, was named after Texas Guinan.
