A Conference at the William J. Clinton Presidential Library

August 11-12, 2006
Little Rock, AR

Remember the western movies and TV shows you watched when you were a kid? Those cowboy heroes seemed taller, stronger, braver and more handsome than any grown-up we knew and we loved them for it. They were “good guys” and our parents wanted us to grow up to be like them—and so did we!

Come to the Clinton Library on August 11-12, 2006 and meet some of those heroes involved in the making of western movies and television shows. Hear their stories and have a chance to ask them questions about themselves and their experiences!
