Pedigree Author Avalyn Hunter to be Wednesday's Guest on BLOODHORSE.COM’S “TALKIN’ HORSES”
Equestrian News Release
Lexington, KY — Join pedigree expert and award-winning author Avalyn Hunter as she discusses her new release The Kingmaker: How Northern Dancer Founded a Racing Dynasty. Hunter will be the special guest live online for the Wednesday, March 29th edition of bloodhorse.com’s “Talkin’ Horses” beginning at Noon ET (9:00 a.m. PT); online at http://www.bloodhorse.com/talkinhorses.
The Kingmaker, published by Eclipse Press, explores how Northern Dancer and his sons have established a royal dynasty that has profoundly dominated the international bloodstock market.
One of the first pedigree books Avalyn Hunter can recall reading as a fifteen-year-old is Sir Charles Leicester’s classic work, Bloodstock Breeding, which twenty-five years later served as a model and inspiration for Hunter’s first book, American Classic Pedigrees 1914–2002. Covering the race records, antecedents, and descendants of the winners of the American Triple Crown races plus the Kentucky Oaks and Coaching Club American Oaks for fillies, the massive work took some two years to write and was released in May 2003 by Eclipse Press.
A former Air Force officer, Hunter is a graduate of Vanderbilt University and Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. She lives in Florida with her husband and two children.
