SAM MADDEN: Ms. Country Western Arizona 1997-98, nationally recognized equestrienne, published author, public speaker, and totally blind kidney/pancreas transplant recipient!

 

NEWSFLASH!

I am honored that I will be travelling to southern California in August 2002 to train with the epitome of dressage, Hilda Gurney herself, at which time I will also meet with a producer in L.A. about selling the option to make my life story into a movie! Watch here for updates!

 

Excerpts from my scrapbook

Have you ever tried NOT getting Publicity while being blind and riding, jumping, and showing horses? My scrapbook is overflowing, so I thought I'd share some of it with you. I hope it helps you see things my way!
