Former Wrangler Shares Grand Canyon Life Through Art

Although Artist Mary Lois Brown had never traveled more than 20 miles outside of her small town in Pennsylvania, a river trip at the Grand Canyon in the late 1970s swept her miles away to a new home and a new job. Not only did that trip spur a love for the canyon, but also a love for the mules. In 1981, Brown accepted a job as one of only two women wranglers at the Grand Canyon. “I wanted an outdoor job,” she said. “There was one other woman wrangler that year, Shirley Bell, but I was the only one to make it through the winter as a guide.” After spending a total of three years as a wrangler, Brown revisited her former profession as a hairstylist and obtained the contract for the beauty salon at the Bright Angel Lodge. “I didn’t move to the Grand Canyon for a job, I went there for the canyon. I purchased the contract for the salon so I could do what I wanted, hiking and volunteering for the park service on the Colorado River. With this (salon) job, I had to get up and go to work but they didn’t tell me when. As a wrangler you have to be on time.
