Episode description as stored
Wyoming is famous as the Cowboy State, but women have shaped its laws, land, culture, and communities from the beginning. In 1869, Wyoming Territory became the first U.S. territory to grant women the right to vote, a historic breakthrough that helped earn it another proud name: the Equality State.
Fifth-generation Wyomingite, photographer, and storyteller Lindsay Linton Buk joins Women Road Warriors hosts Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro to reveal the remarkable women behind Wyoming’s history and the modern American West.
Lindsay’s new book, Women Shaping the West: Stories from Wyoming , grew out of her acclaimed podcast and museum exhibition. After training in New York City and returning home, Lindsay traveled more than 15,000 miles across Wyoming, shot 600 rolls of film, and recorded over 3,000 minutes of interviews.
Her visually stunning collection profiles more than 25 extraordinary women from an Eastern Shoshone language preservationist and a backcountry pilot to an abstract painter and a Wyoming Supreme Court justice. Their lives challenge the enduring myth that rugged men built the West alone.
In this episode, discover:
How Wyoming women fought for, won, and protected early voting rights
How Haudenosaunee women influenced early leaders of the American women’s rights movement
Why living and working close to the land demands extraordinary resilience
How women’s interdependence creates a circular web of strength that uplifts entire communities
What Wyoming’s ranchers, artists, pilots, judges, language keepers, and other leaders reveal about identity, purpose, and leadership
Meet the women who helped build Wyoming and the bold women who are still shaping the American West today.
