Orval Faubus
Orval Eugene Faubus was an American politician who served as 36th Governor of Arkansas from 1955 to 1967. A Democrat, he is best remembered for his 1957 stand against the desegregation of the Little Rock School District during the Little Rock Crisis, in which he defied a unanimous decision of the U.S. Supreme Court by ordering the Arkansas National Guard to prevent black students from attending Little Rock Central High School.
Faubus was born to Sam Faubus and the former Addie Joslen in the Combs community near Huntsville, the county seat of Madison County in northwestern Arkansas. He was born prematurely and weighed only 4160lb at birth. According to his father, Little Orval was different from most boys. Kids liked to get into mischief, but all he ever did was read books. He never done anything if he couldnt do it perfectly. Youd never find a weed in his row of corn.
