Cynthia Coughlin, a member of the U.S. Marshals Museum Foundation Board, has committed $500,000 to the recently opened U.S. Marshals Museum in Fort Smith to support static and interactive exhibits in the “Modern Marshals” gallery of the museum.
Born in New York City and raised in the San Francisco Bay area, Coughlin moved to Northwest Arkansas in 1978. She was married to Tom Coughlin, former vice chairman of Walmart Inc., who died in 2016. Walmart founder Sam Walton recruited Coughlin in 1978 while he was at Ohio-based supermarket and discount department store chain company Cook United.
Since 1984, she has operated Coughlin’s Ranch, a cattle-breeding operation specializing in registered Black Angus in Centerton.
