Please vote for your TOP TEN (Honor System Anonymous Poll) from this group:
Please nominate any other actresses not on the list, either here or in those other threads.

Jean Arthur
Jane Fonda starred in Cat Ballou, so I guess you could include her. Also Amanda Blake from Gunsmoke and Kim Darby from True Grit.

We need more votes if this list is to move on to the Next Phase – whatever that may be.

Looks as if the top four are the only ones apt to move on to later phases of the project.

Thanks for the info. They’re doing very well anyway.
Tantoo Cardinal tops the list of my favorites. Probably shouldn’t count Joanna Pacuła as a “western” star, but she excelled as Kate in Tombstone .

When you get right down to it, it’s difficult to decide what makes a woman a “Westerns Star” where a man seems to be easier to place in that category. Is it the guns?

I will try to gather up these write-in nominations from the various threads and present them as a poll – after we’re close to the expiry date of the ones already up.
Thanks for the idea. There are probably many qualified actresses we just haven’t named yet. But there’s still some time to do that.
