Robert Caro, in his books about Lyndon Johnson - Alice Glass and Lyndon Baines "Johnson had a long-running love affair - quotes people describing Alice as a beautiful woman, intelligent, independent, and idealistic. She was said to have stood almost six feet in her bare feet; was graceful, slender, with large blue eyes, and blonde hair with a reddish tinge. A noted New York society photographer, who had done portraits of women the likes of Greta Garbo, said she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
