Adamson High School. Brown said at the age of 19 she married James Glynn Brown, a childhood sweetheart whom she divorced in 1955. She described her husband as a veteran of the United States Marine Corps whose "war experiences had shattered his nerves, and turned him into a hopeless, physically abusive drunkard". She said that she was hired by Glenn Advertising and was promoted to media buyer whose responsibilities including purchasing radio advertising time. On November 5, 1982, Brown spoke at a news conference held at the Dallas Press Club, alleging that she had an extramarital relationship with Johnson for almost twenty years. She said that the affair began in 1948 after a party at the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas and lasted until 1967. The Dallas Morning News also published the allegations under the headline "Dallas Woman Claims She Was LBJ's Lover", noting that spokespeople for the Johnson family rejected the claims.
