In late 1965, Fort Worth Star-Telegram reporter Bob Schieffer was sent on the assignment of a lifetime. Schieffer made history at age 28 as one of the first correspondents from a major Texas newspaper to be sent overseas to cover the Vietnam War, both as a reporter and photojournalist. Schieffer was tasked with locating and interviewing service members from Fort Worth and Texas during their deployment in Vietnam, bringing their stories home to loved ones. Ultimately, Schieffer located 235 soldiers from Texas and interviewed dozens of them for the Star-Telegram.The exhibit will include painted portraits Schieffer created in 2025 based on the photographs he took of Texan soldiers serving in the war and selections from his collection of letters and photographs taken during the Vietnam War. This will mark Schieffer's second painting exhibition but the first exhibition of his photographic work. It is also his first exhibition to be held in his home state of Texas.For more information on the exhibit, visit https://libraries.uta.edu/schieffer. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/6cbe8660-d80f-11f0-a4f1-ab89ef198835-rimg-w1145-h740-dc474747-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/arlington/our-man-in-vietnam-exhibit-of-photographs-and-paintings-by-bob-schieffer/100001977529131867 - **Event Categories**: exhibitions, art, fine-arts - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Arlington - **state**: TX - **country**: United States - **location**: UTA Special Collections - **lat**: 32.7296121 - **long**: -97.11289 - **full address**: UTA Special Collections, 702 Planetarium Place, Arlington, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: "Our Man in Vietnam" Exhibit of Photographs and Paintings by Bob Schieffer - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/d486e8fee6c8541217d7c4daeaf3d52da864cce7cb9ae9fec11da6fce1531bac-rimg-w1016-h668-dcfefefe-gmir.jpg?v=1765622125 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is "Our Man in Vietnam" Exhibit of Photographs and Paintings by Bob Schieffer being held? - **A:** "Our Man in Vietnam" Exhibit of Photographs and Paintings by Bob Schieffer takes place on Tue, 10 Feb, 2026 at 04:00 pm to Tue, 10 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm at UTA Special Collections, 702 Planetarium Place, Arlington, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing "Our Man in Vietnam" Exhibit of Photographs and Paintings by Bob Schieffer? - **A:** "Our Man in Vietnam" Exhibit of Photographs and Paintings by Bob Schieffer is organized by University of Texas at Arlington Special Collections. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
