Mary Jane Bradbury, a Chautauqua speaker for Humanities Montana, presented a portrayal of Nancy Cooper Russell, wife of famed western artist Charlie Russell. Bradbury described the background of Nancy Russell and her role in the development of Charlie Russell's artistic career. She poses with a copy of Russell's "The Exalted Leader," which sold in 1994 for $1.2 million and now part of the collection at the Russell Museum.
