For the first “Local Lore with Bob Richard” program of the 2023 season, Bob Richard welcomes back special guests Al and Pete Simpson for the continuation of their lively conversation about Old Timers and Early Day Women of the Cody area, begun at a program last fall.
The free talk takes place in the Buffalo Bill Center of the West’s Coe Auditorium on Thursday, Feb. 16, starting at noon. Al, Pete, and Bob have more anecdotes and photographs to share about the history of the Cody area and the folks who have made it their home.
Alan K. Simpson, retired Republican U.S. Senator from Wyoming, is also the longest standing member of the Center of the West’s Board of Trustees, which he joined in 1968, and was chairman of the board from 1999-2011. Peter K. Simpson is a University of Wyoming professor emeritus, former state legislator, and has been on the Center’s McCracken Research Library Advisory Board since 1997.
Following the program, Bob signs copies of his books at the Center’s Points West Market.
The Local Lore series is hosted and coordinated by the Center’s McCracken Research Library. For the 2023 season, the talks take place every other month: Feb. 16, April 20, June 8, Aug. 17, Oct. 19 and Dec. 21. For more information on Center talks and other events, visit centerofthewest.org/events.
