I had the honor of interviewing Sheila Varian for Equine VIP a few years ago. Sheila has won too many honors and awards to list, but is most known for winning the Open Reined Cow Horse Championship at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, California. She was the first amateur, the first woman and had the first Arabian
(her mare Ronteza) to take that title. RIP Sheila Varian 1940 – 2016
