Ira Shaw Missing Person Case

Ira Elizabeth Shaw, a 15-year-old, disappeared on June 19, 1978, in Austin, Texas. She was last seen leaving her summer job at the Lyndon B. Johnson Library on Red River Street around 5:00 p.m. Ira, who went by the nicknames "Liz" or "Ira-Liz," was supposed to walk to her aunt’s house to meet her mother, but she never arrived. At the time of her disappearance, she was described as 5 feet tall, weighing 120 pounds, with a distinctive large light-colored birthmark on the front of her right leg. She had black hair and brown eyes.

Despite extensive searches and the passage of time, very few details have emerged about Ira’s disappearance, and no suspects or persons of interest have been publicly named. The case remains classified as an endangered missing person, and law enforcement continues to seek any information that might help solve the mystery of her disappearance.
