In truth, the Ohio-born performer was both steelier and savvier, with lots for a modern feminist to love. First, she married smart. If you\u2019re going to wed at all, pick a husband as handsome and loyal as the Irish immigrant Frank Butler, who set aside his own flourishing career in order to promote hers. (He also wrote her cute poems.) Second, she went after her enemies with something more powerful than a shotgun.<\/p>\n<p>When William Randolph Hearst, the newspaper magnate, allowed his chain of newspapers to run patently false stories depicting her as a thieving drug addict\u2014a serious threat to her dignified brand\u2014Annie Oakley took him to court, not once but fifty-five times. In a Harvey Weinstein-like move to thwart her, Hearst sent a private investigator to dig up dirt in Darke County, where Annie grew up, but nothing was found. In a series of expensive, historically significant lawsuits that lasted years, she prevailed in all but one courtroom. Take that, tabloids and haters.<\/p>\n<p>My forthcoming novel, <em>Annie and the Wolves<\/em>\u2014a blend of fact and speculative fiction\u2014links Annie\u2019s determination to battle adversaries with trauma caused in her childhood, when she was hired out to live with a farm family that abused her. (The backstory is, unfortunately, true.) It also suggests her battle with Hearst exaggerated other midlife woes. Whether she herself would have admitted the connections, Annie Oakley undeniably pioneered her own route out of poverty and thrived as a modern businesswoman, insistent upon protecting her brand, whether she was traveling with Buffalo Bill\u2019s Wild West show or working her own profitable gigs.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Like an 1800s Dolly Parton, she appeared to be apolitical and demure, yet at the same time led by example, championing the inclusion of females in the military and training women to protect themselves from men. Knowing that still wasn\u2019t enough to right the world\u2019s gender wrongs, she donated her wealth to underprivileged girls. That strength and generosity\u2014not only her ability to shoot dimes tossed in the air\u2014are what endear me to Annie Oakley, a badass whose real actions outshine the silly musicals that got her so wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Andromeda Romano-Lax is the author of <em>Annie and the Wolves<\/em> (Feb 2, 2021) selected by <em>Oprah Magazine<\/em> as one of 2021\u2019s best and most anticipated historical novels.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5770&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/lccn.loc.gov\/00651800&#8243;]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"tdi_7\" class=\"tdc-row\"><div class=\"vc_row tdi_8  wpb_row td-pb-row\" >\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_8,\r\n                .tdi_8 .tdc-columns{\r\n                    min-height: 0;\r\n                }.tdi_8,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_8 .tdc-columns{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_8 .tdc-columns{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_8:before,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_8:after{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: table;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"vc_column tdi_10  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-column td-pb-span3\">\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_10{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_10 > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_10 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_10 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_10 > .wpb_wrapper > .vc_row_inner{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_10 > .wpb_wrapper{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t    height: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" ><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_column tdi_12  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-column td-pb-span6\">\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_12{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_12 > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_12 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_12 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_12 > .wpb_wrapper > .vc_row_inner{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_12 > .wpb_wrapper{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t    height: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" ><div class=\"td_block_wrap td_block_video_embed tdi_13 td-pb-border-top td_block_template_8\"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_13\" >\n<style>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_13 .wpb_video_wrapper video{\r\n                   max-width: 100%\r\n                }\n<\/style><div class=\"td-block-title-wrap\"><\/div><div id=tdi_13 class=\"td_block_inner td-fix-index\">\r\n                <div class=\"wpb_video_wrapper\">\r\n                    <video controls  loop>\r\n                        <source src=\"https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/AnnieOakley_512kb.mp4\">\r\n                        Your browser does not support the video tag.\r\n                    <\/video>\r\n                <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_column tdi_15  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-column td-pb-span3\">\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_15{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_15 > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_15 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_15 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_15 > .wpb_wrapper > .vc_row_inner{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_15 > .wpb_wrapper{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t    height: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" ><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_column_text] Andromeda Romano-Lax, author of Annie and the Wolves America\u2019s favorite sharpshooter suffered a sugary makeover in Hollywood and Broadway depictions, which depicted her as someone willing to throw matches and stomach bratty men.
