Photo taken in the 1950’s.  I don’t remember this trainers name. For over 45 years acts came and went on the Siebrand Circus……some played for only one season. It was a good place to brake in a new act for the bigger circuses. Our family performed with the Siebrand circus numerous seasons from 1947 to1965.
