Mabel Stark
Whenever I think of Mabel Stark, I think of her with the tigers. This open air menagerie shot was taken on the Al G. Barnes Circus. Seeing Mabel Stark with a leopard always intriqued me.
I performed from 1973 to 1995 with a couple years off in between. I did an aerial cradle act for three years, low wire as a clown, trained llamas, ponies, then lions and tigers for 15 years. I am now a firefighter, a member of the Circus Historical Society and an author of several circus and carnival related subjects.
