I Once Was A Cowboy
Sixty Years a Canadian Ranch Hand

Art Hagen
art_hagen Photo ART HAGEN spent more than eight decades living the cowboy way of life. He started out on his parents' ranch in Hazelton, BC, and later worked as a ranch hand in BC's Caribou Country and the southern interior. Art finally settled in the Milk River region of southern Alberta, where he married and raised two children. Art worked as a ranch hand and a range rider until the age of 80, when he finally put his trusty steed out to pasture. He and his son own a small ranch raising Black Angus cattle in Alberta's Peace River Country. Art is also a musician and songwriter with two albums to his credit.
