Regina Olson Hughes

Regina Olson Hughes (1895-1993) was an American scientific illustrator in Botanical Art. Born February 1, 1895 in Herman, Nebraska, she became fascinated with the world of plants and flowers. Her parents were Johana and Gilbert Hughes. At age 10, she contracted scarlet fever and slowly decreased her hearing until she became fully deaf at age 14.〔 In order for her to communicate with her peers, she relied on lip reading and written down notes for business work.〔 She retained her speech skills and continued to speak fluently throughout her adulthood. However she became proficient in sign language when she enrolled in Gallaudet College. She loved her rural home, rampant with weeds, plants and flowers. An interest in art also dominated her childhood. Her parents provided art tutoring. Plants and flowers were her favorite subjects.〔 In 1923, Hughes married Frederick H. Hughes〔 and lived on Gallaudet University's campus for thirty years.〔 He was Gallaudet’s legendary Deaf economics professor, theater enthusiast, and football coach. In 1956, he died of a heart attack.〔 She died August 12, 1993 due to heart failure at age 98.〔
== Education ==
Hughes decided to pursue her education at Gallaudet College, the then only postsecondary program for deaf students.〔 She said, “In 1918, when I graduated from Gallaudet, deaf people were looked down upon. We were treated like children.” But she never backed down from a challenge. At Gallaudet she proved her gift as a writer and poet, contributing many poems to the College's newspaper, "Buff and Blue."〔 After she graduated, she called on Nebraska senator Filbert Hichcock, founder of Omaha World Herald and and friend of her fathers, and asked if he could help her find a political job. He told her, “nice girls don’t work. You go home and stay with your papa and meet a nice man and he'll take care of you.”She was notably “unimpressed” with this advice.〔 In 1918, she received her bachelor’s in art and then in 1920, her masters degree.〔
