Jesse Jones: City Builder and Public Servant

No figure in Houston’s history has had as much of an impact on the city’s success today than Jesse Holman Jones. Therefore, The Heritage Society proudly presents its newest exhibit, “It is in service that you will grow the greatest” Jesse Jones: City Builder and Public Servant. Not always remembered, Jones was an influential figure behind the scenes on the local, state, and national front. Dubbed Mr. Houston, Jones was a banker, businessman, politician, and philanthropist for the Houston community. As Secretary of Commerce for F.D.R., Jones was instrumental in bringing the nation out of the Depression while also insuring that not one Houston bank would go under. The exhibit will document his key role in U.S. history as well as feature extensive collections once owned by him.
