Laura Street

Hey Amarillo

A conversation with Laura Street, a nonprofit consultant who has spent the past 25 years intimately involved in local leadership. She is the past executive director of the Laura W. Bush Institute for Women’s Health at the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center in Amarillo, and served as the founding executive director of the Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts—where she led a campaign to raise more than $33 million and supervised the construction of that landmark building. By her count, she has served as president on at least 18 local, regional and state boards. Laura Street shares with host Jason Boyett what originally brought her to Amarillo, her early career in nursing, and what drives her to stay involved with so many elements of this community.
