“No Regrets”
Wilma Standard Tate
Nuevo, California
Wilma was a trick rider in the 1930’s. She said she always wanted to be a cowgirl as long as she could remember. She said she got hurt a few times but never blamed the horse. Once she got hung up and her horse accidentally kicked both eyes out of her head. She did Roman riding, standing on four horses at once. She also taught a horse to jump a car.
One of a series of limited edition fine art photographs from the American Cowgirl collection.

I have to tell you that this photograph of Wilma brought tears to my eyes. Wilma taught me to ride when I was 12 years old, 44 years ago. I have not seen her for many years and when I Googled her name, your site came up and I found this picture. How wonderful to see her again after so many years. I still have horses and I think of her every time I saddle up or work with them. Thank you so much for honoring this great, great lady and for bringing alive many wonderful memories of the years she taught me to love and ride horses.
