For many of you Susan Derr Drake will need no introduction!

Susan Derr Drake,  Grand Prix Dressage Rider and Coach, Photo Journalist, Artist and Author
Born in the Year of the Horse, Susan has devoted her life to all things Horse.   She has trained in all disciplines and styles of riding with many breeds including competing in 116 Dressage Grand Prixs and training others to that level. She has studied alternative horse healing  and promotes that which is the highest good for the horse.

As a photojournalist she worked for Horse Action News for years and had the cover story and photo of the Dressage World Championships for the California HorseTrader.  For many years she was a horse show photographer and videographer. After winning many awards for her oil paintings years ago, Susan is looking forward to returning to that media to share the beauty of horses in oils.
