About the Author
Barbara Bryan first fell in love with horses on a pony ride in New York City’s Central Park at the age of four. Since then, she has ridden whenever she could on whatever she could. From Western Barrel Racing to Three Day Events, she has cherished them all.
Barbara’s love and respect for horses only intensified when she encountered the horrid practice of soring on Tennessee Walking Horses.
During the Covid Lockdown, Barbara decided to use the time by writing a book that would shine a light on soring through the adventures of Matt and Ariel in Topanga Canyon.
She is part-owner of the Interactive Café in Santa Monica, CA. (Interactive-café.com). She delights in talking about horses, equestrian life, and eradicating the practice of soring. Please stop in and share your knowledge and stories. Show her a picture of your horse, and coffee is on the house.
