Description:
Roy and Dale Onstage and In Between is a celebration of legacy, laughter, and the "in-between" moments that made Roy and Dale not just stars, but enduringly beloved.
Brief description: Julie Rogers Pomilia is an educator, storyteller, and lifelong keeper of family stories; some legendary, some wonderfully ordinary. As the granddaughter of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, she grew up around movie sets, music, horses and a whole lot of laughter, learning that life is as much about the quiet, in-between moments as it is of time in the spotlight. With more than thirty years in early childhood education, Julie approaches history the same way she approaches life; with curiosity, gratitude, and a sense of humor. She is also the author of the children's picture book, The Ridiculous Party, and Your Heroes, My Grandparents, a book filled with personal memories and behind-the-scenes stand-alone short stories from growing up with Roy and Dale simply as Grandma and Grandpa. She doesn't take herself too seriously, but she deeply appreciates the life she was given, and loves passing those stories along, one memory at a time.
