About the Author

Susan E. Harris is foremost a horsewoman who has shown in and prepared horses for most types of competition. Yet she is also the author of Horsemanship in Pictures, and the bestselling classic, Grooming to Win (published by Howell Book House). She contributes articles to Practical Horseman and other magazines, and illustrates her own books and those of others. She lives in Cortland, New York, but travels nationwide to conduct riding clinics and instructor training clinics in Centered Riding (the method developed by Sally Swift), hunter seat, dressage and Western and general horsemanship. When she has spare time, she enjoys trail riding and foxhunting.
