Cheyenne is the youngest of the Garnick clan, whoever created us saved the best for last. Growing up she was known to often speak in animal tongues, run faster on all fours, hide in cozy nests, or be wandering round the back-country. She always had either a book or a journal in hand, her imagination only harnessed by pen and paper. Cheyenne spent half her summers in Dubois, WY at her father's dude ranch as a wrangler, and the other half in Jackson Hole at her mother’s live dinner theatre. When she’s out on a horseback ride she’ll be heard singing anything from Marty Robbin’s ballads to Julie London’s lullabies. Even though her heart belongs to the trees and mountains, a part of her belongs art, to creation in all of its forms. Throughout the years she has won multiple honorable mentions from Young Authors, scholarships to the Writer’s Conference, and even a poetry workshop with Poet Laureate W.S. Merwin.  Her heart roles have been Anybody’s in West Side Story, The Drowsy Chaperone, and Jane Eyre. Cheyenne had the best of both worlds growing up, surrounded by nature and art. The last few years have been spent in Manhattan, Ny., Bellingham and Orcas Island Wa., recuperating and building her resources. She has learned a lot in her short life, mostly to spend as much time outside creating and simply BEING with loved ones as she can.
