Every other year, the Texas Women’s Hall of Fame awards ceremony recognizes the achievements of women selected for induction. Texas residents submit nominations, and a bipartisan, independent panel of judges chooses who will be inducted from these candidates.
The 2023 honorees are:
- Leta Andrews (Athletics)
- Mary Horn (Public Service)
- Val LaMantia (Business)
- Opal Lee (Civic Leadership)
- Lavinia Masters (Advocacy/Community Service)
- Antonietta Quigg (Science/Technology)
- Charlotte Sharp (Philanthropy)
- Elizabeth Suarez (Public Service)
Hosted by the Office of the Governor and First Lady Cecilia Abbott, the 2023 Texas Women’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony is held in November, in Austin, Texas.
