Sam Houston Johnson (January 31,1914-December 11,1978) was the younger brother of President Lyndon B. Johnson.

He was notorious for getting drunk and then talking to the press. Eventually, the Secret Service put him under surveillance. He died of lung cancer at 64, ironically at the same age his brother was at his death. Sam wrote the book My Brother Lyndon after LBJ left the White House.
