SUMMARY:Celebrities\, Artists…and Good Places to Drink - Prescott Valley
DESCRIPTION:Arizona has always been a geographical muse for writers\, artists and composers\, as well as a getaway for the rich and famous.  In this talk\, learn about some of the people who have had adventures\, weddings and unusual experiences here\, while also learning about some of the places they lifted a glass\, and why you might want to follow their example. \n \nDuring 35 years in newspaper\, magazine and broadcasting\, Lisa Schnebly Heidinger discovered that “journalism is history on the fly\,” and that the past informs the present.  She has honed the craft of sussing out and sharing stories in newspaper\, radio\, television\, magazines\, editorial columns and books. Lisa went into a drug tunnel\, had dinner with polygamist families\, walked through plane crash debris and interviewed death row inmates before taking on the truly risky pursuit of raising a family. She shares the red-setter gene with her father\, which means jumping into an open car door regardless of the destination. \n

SUMMARY:Sheep Ranchers and Herders of Arizona - Winslow
DESCRIPTION:Sheep ranching has been greatly overlooked in the history of Arizona. While it never will compete with the five “C’s”\, it added a great deal to the economic diversity in the state. Many different ethnic groups settled here and raised sheep for a living weathering the economic downturns as well as the prosperous years. They often weathered the storm better than cattlemen. These men and women raised their families on the frontier and left a lasting impact on the economic and ethnic diversity within the state. The story of the sheep industry is told through personal family memoirs collected over several years. The cyclical cycle taken each year will be shown in a photographic journey. \nDr. Barbara Jaquay\, a historical geographer\, recently published Where Have All the Sheep Gone? : Sheepherders and Ranchers in Arizona – A Disappearing Industry\, a history of the sheep industry in Arizona.  She has her Ph.D. from Texas A&M where she wrote on the Caribbean Cotton Industry.  She has traveled extensively on all seven continents and visited over 40 countries.  She has followed many of Father Kino’s journeys of discovery as she visited his missions in Arizona and Mexico.  She has published on Cuba and Costa Rica as well as Arizona Native Americans. Dr. Jaquay continues to pursue the geographical and mysterious wonders across the globe.  She is working on a second book on the sheep industry and finishing her children’s book.

SUMMARY:Working in the Salt Mine: Ancient and Historic Mining of Salt in Arizona - Springerville
DESCRIPTION:Salt has been a valuable trade item throughout human history. Native American salt procurement in the Southwest involved dangerous journeys across sacred landscapes associated with a deity called Salt Woman. This presentation describes the history of a famous salt mine in Camp Verde\, Arizona\, where prehistoric Sinagua tools used for mining salt were discovered in the 1920s by historic miners deep inside tunnels dug into a thick\, fresh-water salt deposit. Numerous photographs are shown of these well-preserved\, 700-year old tools to illustrate the story of this unusual discovery.  Comparisons are made with other Native American salt mines in the Southwest. \nDr. Todd W. Bostwick has been conducting archaeological research in the Arizona for 38 years. He has a Masters degree in Anthropology and a Ph.D. in History from Arizona State University. Dr. Bostwick was the Phoenix City Archaeologist at Pueblo Grande Museum for 21 years before his retirement in 2010\, and was a Faculty Associate at ASU and at NAU for 7 years. He is currently the Director of Archaeology at Verde Valley Archaeology Center. Dr. Bostwick has written and edited numerous articles and books on the American Southwest\, including Landscape of the Spirits: Hohokam Rock Art at South Mountain Park\, published by the University of Arizona.

SUMMARY:The Woman Who Shot Cowboys: Rodeo Photographer Louise L. Serpa - Goodyear
DESCRIPTION:Anyone who has ever stared down an angry bull coming full throttle across an arena will understand why rodeo photographer Louise Serpa often uttered the adage\, “Never Don’t Pay Attention.” Born into New York society\, Louise ended up out west with her nose buried in the dirt & her eye glued to a camera\, becoming the first woman to venture inside the arena and shoot some of the most amazing photographs of rodeo action. The dust and dirt of the rodeo became Louise’s lifeblood for almost 50 years. This PowerPoint program demonstrates the courage and resolute of a woman determined to decide her own fate while ascending to the highest pinnacles of rodeo photography. \nAward-winning author\, historian\, and lecturer Jan Cleere writes extensively about the Southwest desert\, particularly about the people who first settled the territory. She graduated from ASU with a degree in American Studies and is the author of five historical nonfiction books about the people who first settled in the Southwest desert. She lectures around the state about early pioneers who were instrumental in settling and civilizing the territory of Arizona. Jan writes a monthly column for Tucson’s Arizona Daily Star\, “Western Women\,” detailing the lives of some of Arizona’s early amazing women. Her freelance work appears in national and regional publications.
