Madeleine Brown was a media sales exec during the day and a working girl in the evening. She was also Lyndon Johnson's mistress from 1948 to 1966. She has the advantage of living on the inside during the tumultuous early 60s. She was often a fixture during Johnson's meetings with the cronies who provided his power base in the Lone Star state.

Brown knew the entire cast of characters taking part in this American tragedy. She knew the Campisi's, and Jack Ruby showing up at the Carousel Club – sometimes working there. She tells of times when Lee Oswald came around.

She gives a pretty complete account of the meeting at Clint Murchison's home on the eve of the killing – disputing the government loyalists who claim it never happened. It was that evening that Johnson told her “after tomorrow those S.O.B.'s will never embarrass me again - that's no threat - that's a promise."

Her book, Texas in the Morning, unapologetically tells the story of her time with the rich and powerful politician, including the story of the son she shared with Johnson and how well he took care of her and the boy after Steven Mark Brown was born. She also tells of the time Lyndon found out the she had a black nanny for her son. He told her to get rid of the woman, but she refused. They never saw the nanny again.
