==Life==
Born in Tennessee to James Henry Hamner and the former Laura Lula Hendrix, Laura was educated at Miss Higbee's School for Young Ladies in Memphis, and Peabody College in Nashville. She also studied at the University of Chicago. Miss Hamner, who never married, was a teacher for many years. From 1913-1921 (Woodrow Wilson administration), she served as the appointed postmistress at Claude, the seat of Armstrong County east of Amarillo. From 1922-1938, she was the Potter County school superintendent, a position which brought her to Amarillo, where she resided for the remainder of her life.〔(Handbook of Texas Online - HAMNER, LAURA VERNON )〕 Hamner lived for years in the Herring Hotel in Amarillo, owned by Mayor Ernest O. Thompson. Long after she had been school superintendent she was informally known as "Miss Amarillo".
