The Art Box - Episode 286 - Fourth Generation Rancher, First Generation Columnist - Meet Sharon

Thanks to a generous grant from the Nevada Arts Council, Linda and Steve are broadcasting from the Elko Convention Center at the 40th Annual National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, Nevada. A heartfelt thank you to the Western Folklife Center for their incredible hospitality and dedication to preserving the spirit of cowboy poetry and Western storytelling!

At the Cowboy Poetry Gathering, we had the pleasure of sharing the Cedar Room with fellow press member Sharon O’Toole, a talented writer and regular columnist for High Country News. In this episode, we dive into a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from ranching life and raising sheep and cattle to the joys and challenges of growing up—and raising children—on the land. Sit back and enjoy this insightful and engaging discussion with a true voice of the West!
