Hanging on the wall in my office is a framed article I wrote for True West magazine about Kate Elder. I didn’t have it framed because of the article, I had it framed because of the artwork done by Bob Boze Bell. Bell’s work has always been awe-inspiring to me and the artwork he did for the article is mesmerizing with its technical confidence. It suits Kate.

Over the last fifteen years, I’ve had the pleasure of being able to write a handful of articles for True West about women of the American frontier. The magazine is a treasure. I’m looking forward to contributing another article about legendary lawman Bill Tilghman and his wife author Zoe Tilghman. I walked away from my visit with the Tilghman’s family last month with information no one has seen before. I’ll be sharing what I learned in the new book about the pair scheduled to be released in the winter of 2024. I hope Bob Boze Bell provides the artwork for the future True West article. I should be so lucky.
