Jackie Anton is an accomplished equestrian with a lifetime of experience: as trainer, exhibitor, 4-H and youth club coach, as well as a horse show judge. The author brings many years of working with horses and young riders to her award-winning Backyard Horse Tales Series.
The author is a mother of two grown children and grandmother of two. She and her husband of fifty-one years continue to ride daily. They live on a mini farm in rural Ohio and share their little slice of horse heaven with two Quarter Horses, a Haflinger, a rescued dog, and two barn cats.
