Book Description
Joe De Yong: A Life in the West is the story of a life welled lived in the America West of the first part of the last century. Born in 1894 in Webster Groves, Missouri, a superb of St. Louis, De Yong had an immediate attraction to the cowboy way of life and when he was not at school he would help out a local ranches. If he wasn¿t riding he was sketching the subjects he loved the most ¿ cowboys and horses. At 13 years of age, he started working a local ranch when he heard a movie was being made in the area and they need cowboys. He jumped at the chance and met the silent-screens ultimate cowboy of the day, Tom Mix. Joe was hit with the idea of acting in moving pictures and followed the film company to Arizona in 1913. Somehow he came down with what was called at the time ¿cerebro meningitis¿ which would leave him totally deaf. Undeterred and further focused on his love of the cowboy ways, De Yong recouped by traveling the West and ultimately took in an exhibit of the works of the renowned artist, Charles M. Russell. The exhibit stopped young Joe in his tracks and he started writing to Russell resulting in Joe¿s opportunity to move to Great Falls, Montana in late 1914 to work with Russell in his studio. De Yong would be the first and only protégé of Russell¿s staying with he and his wife Nancy Russell until CM Russell¿s death in 1926. De Yong moved to Santa Barbara, CA just before Russell¿s death at the urging of their mutual friend, the artist Edward Borein. Borein would introduce De Yong to people in his circle that led to a meeting with film producer Cecil B. DeMille. De Yong would go one to a diverse career in the movie business, writing and creating artwork until his death in 1975.
