Diane “Betsy” Cornwell was effusive in a 1980 article in the Austin American-Statesman, talking about the joys of watching drama students perform. Then a teacher at Lyndon B. Johnson High School in Austin, she told the reporter that watching them felt like witnessing “the kindling of their enjoyment of performance and creation.” In 1988, Cornwell moved to the newly created James Bowie High School, where she ran the theater department for more than 30 years.
