Lee Michels portraying Laura Bell McDaniel

Colorado native and living history presenter Lee Michels has delved into Laura Bell’s story, and those of the American West soiled doves, for over 43 years. Ms. Michel’s vast and relentless research has led her down the path of the mysterious madam, branching off into portraying Laura Bell with riveting, living history presentations. It’s a true rags-to-riches story. The host of characters Laura Bell crossed paths with during her life is astounding and the ending, equally stirring, teases your imagination to this day.
