It was indeed something quintessentially American in Rebecca James’ character, a link with the American frontier myth, that attracted people to her. She wore trousers, cursed like a mountain man, loved all-night poker games and community dances, and could drink men under the table. James’ father was none other than showman Nate Salsbury, creator of the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show that disseminated the myth of the American West throughout the world.
Rebecca was in fact born in Lond (showing 500 of 5285 characters). |
