Cowgirls and Wildwest Stars
Women first participated in rodeo events in the 1880s at local ranch rodeos and later as performers in Wild West shows and vaudeville acts in major cities throughout the United States. Buffalo Bill Cody was the first showman to give women a chance, and they soon became one of the most popular spectator events. These early cowgirls were often flamboyant, outgoing women who awed and intrigued their audiences.
