David M. Smith

David is the quintessential Texas entrepreneur, lover of Texas history, and skilled teller of the colorful twists and turns of his own success story as it intertwines with the growth of the state’s petrochemical industry. He is an ardent collector of Texiana and owns over 20 large locomotive train bells from the glory days of Texas steam engines. David’s entrepreneurial bent, zesty style, folksy humor, and unabashed candor are all combine in this admirable example of the “Texas Spirit.”
