One of North America's finer liberty acts of recent memory. When the POA's were on Circus Vargas with the Appaloosa's trained by JoAnn Andersons father Joseph Hoffmeister, and presented by Tommy Baker it was the most colorful display of liberty horses we have seen in a long time.

I would like to not that I trained these mhorses for the Strongs, with exception to finishing up the Rear, and Trudy did have then doing a fine "hold um" rear. I and my daughter Heidi both worked them at Arabian Nights and I also trained a replacement horse, [it was down to five] and then taught Caroline Williams to present them in her first venture with liberty horses of which sadly for swome reason I have not received recognition.
John,
Not receiving recognition surprises you? It is the nature of this business. And I don't assume it is going to change much, very soon. A number of years ago, a producer came to me and wanted to know what I wanted to train some horses for his daughter. I told him, he thought it was a little stiff, and said he would get back to me. He did and said he decided to give the job to somebody else for less, who would also Ringmaster for him on the road.
