When Farrah Fawcett lived in Houston

It’s hard to believe that Farrah Fawcett would have turned 64 years old this past week, but the Texas Birth Index shows she was born February 2nd, 1947 in Corpus Christi.  It has been more than fifty years since she attended school here in Houston. 

She lived in the Linkwood neighborhood off South Braeswood and attended Pershing Jr. High School in the early 1960’s.  The house is still standing but the original school building has been replaced by a bigger and better facility.

About a year ago this house was on the market, and we were fortunate enough to find some photos of the interior.  It appears that little has changed since Farrah walked through this very living room.

The house has three bedrooms, two baths, a two-car garage and the fireplace you see in the picture.  Other than that, it is just like thousands of other middle-class homes all over America.
