Bonnie Gray Harris

(1891-1988)

Year Inducted: 1981

Home State: CA

Tall and athletic, Bonnie is best remembered for her amazing stunts and trick-riding. Allegedly the first woman to perform the "under the belly crawl" on a horse, she also jumped her horse over an open car with passengers and was one of the first women to ride bulls in Mexican bullfights. As the movie industry flourished in California, so did Bonnie's career as a stunt rider doubling for most of the stars of the time.
