Instructors

These instructors are participating on at least one day of one date of this program.
Please note that changes may occur.

Karen Landis

Karen Landis' front door has opened up onto Route 66 for the past 38 years, giving her status as a Route 66 legend in the Seligman stretch of the road. Some 25 years ago, a customer at her convenience store mustered the gumption to ask her to marry him, and Karen and Mike Landis - a legend himself known as Arizona's No. 1 cowboy - have been ranching together ever since. Karen's independent spirit and ropin' and ridin' skills have opened a new world to Road Scholar adventurers year after year.

Sylvia Jackson

Sylvia is a Hualapai Tribal member who calls the Hualapai Indian Reservation in northwestern Arizona her home. A graduate of Northern Arizona University, Sylvia grew up with her Hualapai grandparents who influenced and fostered her love of her Hualapai culture and traditions. She enjoys sharing her firsthand experiences, knowledge of stories — such as the Creation Story of the Hualapai Tribe — and traditional dances with learners of all ages.

His lectures invoke intrigue and humor to dispel the myths created by Hollywood’s western genre. Garrett replicates museum-quality 19th century leather equipment for theater, is an avid hiker, and enjoys singing jazz. He has also worked for Emmy award-winning wardrobe designer Michael Boyd and was the key costume designer for Stephen Spielberg’s “Into the West.”
