Georgie grew up believing she was born to be a cowhand. But chances to prove herself were scarce for a long time, so Georgie began writing poetry. She eventually achieved her dream of ranching as an equal and her poetry reflects a Western history seen through a ranch hand's eyes. She owned and ran several ranches and her poetry receives national attention with awards like the Gail Garner award for the outstanding working cowboy poet.
