Joe Barrera
Posted By thecircusblog on October 17, 2010
Joe Barrera was called Mexican Joe and was featured on the Miller Bros 101 Ranch Show 1908, where he was a trick rider and roping stunts. In 1945 Joaquin Sanchez appeared in the new addition of the 101 produced by Jimmy Woods. Joaquin Sanchez was the Mexican vaquero in the show performing trick riding and roping. Sanchez also was an actor in the silent movie era and a very good actor at that, but when the talkies came out he did not do well as his English was not good. He later went into performing in the circus and rodeos. Somewhere in my mothers old photos is a photo of Joaquin, When found I will post. Joe Berrera was also featured with Pawnee Bills Wild West show. His first season started in 1901, I was reminded of this by a circus blog visitor, Thank you.
