Hello and welcome back to another episode of Breakfast with Mom!
Today I want to tell you about Bass Reeves, a lawman from the late 1800’s. In light of the new series coming out on Paramount sometime this year. The series will be called Lawmen: Bass Reeves, created by Chad Feehan. This series will be part of the Taylor Sheridan production portfolio.

Bass Reeves, born in July 1838, was an African American lawman who became a legendary figure in the American Wild West. His remarkable career as a deputy U.S. Marshal spanned over three decades, during which he apprehended more than 3,000 outlaws and brought them to justice. Reeves' unparalleled bravery, sharpshooting skills, and unwavering commitment to upholding the law made him one of the most respected and feared lawmen of his time.
