Finding work as a cowboy and ranch hand, he quickly became a steer wrestling champion. While traveling with a Wild West show, he befriended such cowboy movie stars as Tom Mix, Hoot Gibson, Yakima Canutt, and "Broncho Billy" Anderson. With friends like these, a movie career for Art himself wasn't far behind. After a stint as a stuntman, he became one of the biggest Western names of the silent era, Starring in over 100 films (many of which are now lost, leading to Acord's modern-day cult status.) But a serious drinking problem and a voice unsuitable for sound meant that Art had to return to rodeos. Depressed over the reversal in his fortunes, Acord committed suicide at the age of 40. Fighters Of The Saddle: Greedy speculator Henry Weatherby has been buying up land, forcing farmers off their homes in the process.
