Women can be legends too. Today we're diving into two "American Demigoddesses," Calamity Jane and Annie Oakley, two fascinating characters that represent the American spirit in their own unique way. This is the third and final part of our American Demigods miniseries, a collaboration with students from Brigham Young University where we explore tall tale and real life characters who embody The United States of America as a country in honor of America's 250th anniversary this year.

Meet Calamity Jane, a woman built for the wild west who could hang with the toughest outlaws and cowboys. And get ready for Annie Oakley's origin story as she goes up against her future husband Frank Butler in a shooting competition.
