The photo is the only one I’ve ever seen of Geronimo wearing glasses. If you look closely, you’ll see the lenses were very thick. This is curious because, in his journal Burbank Among the Indians, E.A. Burbank wrote that, on the Fort Sill Indian reservation, Geronimo tried to set him up with a shooting contest using a little target the size of a quarter. He proposed that every time he would hit the target, Burbank would give Geronimo $10.00. Suspicious, Burbank suggested they just shoot for fun. Geronimo never missed a shot and Burbank never hit the target once. At the time, Geronimo was 70-years-old. (out of print, Caxton Printers. LTD. 1946) photo courtesy of Pinterest.

Rudy’s schedule for Geronimo, Life on the Reservation:
April 6 & 7- Santa Monica, CA Playhouse
April 19- Roxy Theatre, Muskogee, OK. The next night, at the same theatre, Rudy will be inducted into the Oklahoma Film Hall of Fame.
In August, for 2 shows, Rudy will be at the Western Legends Roundup in Kanab, UT. Dates to be announced.

I’m an indie-writer and I write on a lot of subjects. My latest is a suspense/romance titled A One-way Cruise to Africa. See my other books and stories here: Novels, short stories, and a play now touring staring Rudy Ramos!
Geronimo, Life on the Reservation

Rudy Ramos as Geronimo

Note: Rudy is not touring right now because he has landed the part of Felix long In Kevin Costner’s series, Yellowstone. They are now filming Season 2 (Paramount Channel). He is accepting “Geronimo” dates when his film schedule allows.
