First presented in 1961, the National Cowboy & Western Heritage
Museum Western Heritage Awards were established to honor and
encourage the legacy of those whose works in literature, music,
film, and television reflect the significant stories of the
American West. The awards program also recognizes inductees
into the prestigious Hall of Great Westerners and the Hall
of Great Western Performers as well as the recipient of the
Chester A. Reynolds Memorial Award, named in honor of the
Museum’s founder. Each honoree receives a Wrangler, an impressive
bronze sculpture of a cowboy on horseback.
