Background
Bogue, Lucile was born on April 21, 1911 in Salt Lake City. Daughter of Roy D. and Maude E. (Callicotte) Maxfield.
(Portia Mansfield and Charlotte Perry, fresh out of Smith ...)
Portia Mansfield and Charlotte Perry, fresh out of Smith College, decided to make dance and theatre their life's work. Leaders in what was to become the field of modern dance, they helped shape the course of dance in America over five decades, and were instrumental in introducing dance movement into serious drama. Born out of their passion for dance and the equestrian arts was the Perry-Mansfield School of Dance, situated against the backdrop of the majestic Colorado Rockies. The ranch attracted to its faculty such dancers as Doris Humphry, Merce Cunningham, Anges DeMille, Helen Tamaris, and Charles Weidman. Julie Harris, Dustin Hoffman, Lee Remick, and Mako were amongst the young actors who sought and found artistic inspiration at the Perry- Mansfield School. A legend in her own right, author Lucile Bogue (Miracle on A Mountain) recounts in vivid detail the dramas and history surrounding the founding and creative philosophies of Perry-Mansfield School. A wonderful book for students of dance, theatre, or equestrian arts. Heavily illustrated.

In this, her latest of many published works, Lucile Bogue recounts her experiences during a summer long ago when, as a petite mother of two young children, she spent a summer single-handedly running an isolated Colorado ranch. With the freshness and humor that only the most practiced of writers can bring to a tale, Bogue recalls how a city girl muscled her way through one near disaster after another. If you are looking for a read-aloud book to share with your friends or children, this one-two punch of humor and drama is it. Bound to be a hit with anyone who has lived on a ranch or bitten off more that they could chew. An insight into the remarkable life of Lucile Bogue, who would later found a college in Colorado, tour the world, and win world-wide acclaim as a poet, playwright, and storyteller for all generations. Illustrated.
