Eleanor Blevins

Eleanor Blevins (Bizarre Los Angeles)

“She swims like Annette Kellerman, drives a machine like Barney Oldfield, fences like Piquard, boxes like Willie Ritchie; and as for bust-tricks of the range from throwing broncos: she was taught all the lariat to ‘bulldogging’ a steer by Tom Mix. She holds the unique distinction of being the first lady to ever perform the latter fear in front of a camera.”Tucson Citizen newspaper in 1915
