Julie majored in Music at Biola University in Los Angeles, but quickly realized she didn't have the passion to pursue a music career. So she switched her major to Elementary Education. She did, however, continue playing viola in several quartets, and a local symphony. Then later, after moving to Germany, she became the principal violist in the Munich Chamber Orchestra, where she performed in concerts at the Nymphenburg Palace.Being the granddaughter of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans her childhood (and throughout her life) has been colored with the deep familial love born out of the most famous on-screen (and off-screen) western couples of all time The King of Cowboys, Roy Rogers, and The Queen of the West, Dale Evans.Her book Your Heroes, My Grandparents, is a collection of short stories and family photos of Roy and Dale, that was originally written for her three sons. Because this couple played such a vital role in the formation of American culture, as well as much encouragement from people along the way, she decide to widen her audience to the public.view less
