Everything about Luci Baines Johnson totally explained
Luci Baines Johnson Turpin, formerly Nugent, (born
July 2,
1947) is the younger daughter of U.S. President
Lyndon Johnson and his wife, the former
Claudia Alta Taylor (known as
Lady Bird Johnson). Her name was originally spelled "Lucy", but she changed the spelling in her teens. As her parents both had the initials LBJ, they named their two daughters to have these initials also.
Although her father was a member of the
Disciples of Christ, her mother was an
Episcopalian, and she and her older sister,
Lynda Bird, were raised as Episcopalians. Luci converted to
Catholicism at the age of eighteen and was conditionally baptized.
At the age of nineteen, Luci Baines Johnson married Patrick John Nugent (
July 8,
1943) in a high-profile
wedding at the
Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in
Washington, D. C., on
August 6,
1966. They had four children: Patrick Lyndon Nugent (
June 21,
1967), now a pilot in
San Antonio, Nicole Marie Nugent (
January 11,
1970), Rebekah Johnson Nugent (
July 10,
1974) and Claudia Taylor Nugent (
March 3,
1976). The Nugents later divorced, and the marriage judged
annulled by the Catholic Church in
August 1979.
On
March 3,
1984, at the Johnson Ranch near
Austin, Texas, she married Ian Johnstone Turpin (born
1944), a Scottish-born
Canadian financier; he's now president of the LBJ Holding Company. By him, she's a stepson.
Today, Luci is
Chairman of the Board and "hands on" manager of the LBJ Holding Company, her family's multimillion-dollar media empire.
She has served on multiple civic boards, raising funds for the
American Heart Association, acting as
trustee of
Boston University, and as a member of the advisory board of the Center for Battered Women..
