Robin Hutton has spent her adult life working in major event productions and the motion picture business. She was the writing and producing partner of Tom “Billy Jack” Laughlin for over thirty years until his death in 2013.
Currently she is President of Angels Without Wings, Inc., a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation that spearheaded the development and dedication of six national monuments to Sgt. Reckless, the famous Korean War horse.
Her first book, Sgt. Reckless: America‘s War Horse, was a New York Times Bestseller, as well as the 2015 Equine Book of the Year from American Horse Publications, and a 2016 Gold Medal winner from Military Writers Society of America.
Her latest book, War Animals: The Unsung Heroes of World War II, was a 2019 Gold Medal winner from Military Writers Society of America. The heroes in this book inspired a new project, the Animals in War & Peace Medal of Bravery and Distinguished Service Medals.
The inaugural ceremony for this medal was held on November 14, 2019 in Washington, DC on Capitol Hill. This ceremony also launched the Animals In War & Peace Museum - a traveling museum to commemorate these war animals who fought side-by-side with our military war heroes.
Saddle up for a conversation about animals in service, gratitude, and staying on the path toward our dreams.
