The Art Box - Episode 68 - 38th National Cowboy Poetry Gathering - Hiking, Poetry, Rocky Mountains, Being Nice - Meet Doris Daley

Delightful is how we would describe our time interviewing and being entertained by Doris.  "If cowboy poetry was fresh milk and the cream that rises to the top was the very best, then Doris Daley would be very rich and very fattening." So says renowned cowboy ambassador Waddie Mitchell about an Alberta ranch girl whose love of wordsmithing has made her one of North America's favourite western poets, emcees and western humorists.  Born and raised on a family ranch in the foothills of Alberta, Doris's authentic, sparkling poetry has taken her to campfires large and small, to highways, roundabouts and gravel roads throughout the west, and to concert appearances with the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra, the Smithsonian Folklife Festival and the Saskatchewan Opera Company. With a performance career spanning more than 20 years,  Doris is a frequent performer at corporate and community events, Christmas parties, private parties and cowboy poetry gatherings.  Learn more about Doris at: https://dorisdaley.com/
