Born 1891: One of sister act Cossack riders who between the years of 1907 and 1918 rode with Buffalo Bill, Miller Bros., and Barnum & Bailey Circus. This act lasted until she was thrown from her horse and broke her neck. She was also a western movie actress and was friends with Mary Pickford, Tom Mix, Hoot Gibson and Will Rogers. You can now see her performing her shooting act riding with the reins in her teeth and shooting targets with two guns.
