Mary Anita Thigpen Perry (born May 5, 1952)〔 was the longest-serving First Lady of Texas, and the wife of Governor Rick Perry. As First Lady of Texas, she had been an active advocate for nursing and other health care issues.〔 The Anita Thigpen Perry Endowment at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio focuses on nutrition, cardiovascular disease, health education, and early childhood development.〔 In 2008, the Anita Thigpen Perry School of Nursing at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center was renamed in her honor.〔 ==Early life and education== Perry was born in Haskell, Texas. She is the daughter of family physician Joseph Eltidge Thigpen (1920-2013), a native of Bay Springs, Mississippi, and homemaker Beunis Ratliff Thigpen, originally from Haskell. Her parents met in Tyler, where Beunis was visiting relatives. Dr. Thigpen had a distinguished flight record in World War II and earned several medals, including the Bronze Star. He also flew his own plane and was known for making house calls long after the practice ceased to be the norm. Her paternal grandfather was also a doctor and also named Joseph Thigpen. She is named for a paternal aunt, Anita Thigpen Yelverton (1918-1999). She has three siblings: Joseph Thigpen (an attorney in Austin who is a former county attorney and former district attorney), Peggy Hairgrove and husband, Tom, of College Station, and Emily Solis and husband, Vincent, of San Antonio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dr. Joseph Eltidge Thigpen )〕 Like Rick, she is a graduate of Haskell High School. She spent her first year of college at Texas Tech University, but because they did not have a nursing program at the time, she switched to West Texas State University in Canyon, where she received a Bachelor's degree in nursing in 1974. She then obtained a Master of Science degree in nursing from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio.〔 She worked in the nursing profession for more than seventeen years, including surgery, pediatrics, intensive care, administration, and teaching〔 and as a consultant.〔 Although the Perry tax returns indicate she worked as a nurse and took in less than $8,000 a year between 1987 and 1990, upon Rick's election as Texas Agriculture Commissioner, she left nursing.〔http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/08/29/2379942/texas-gov-perry-became-a-millionaire.html#ixzz1WRChqFVa〕
