- Bazy_Tankersley abstract "Ruth "Bazy" Tankersley (March 7, 1921 – February 5, 2013) was an American newspaper publisher and a noted breeder of Arabian horses. Born into the McCormick family, she was raised amongst powerful Republican political figures. She was the daughter of Senator Joseph Medill McCormick and a granddaughter of Senator Mark Hanna of Ohio through her mother, Progressive Republican Ruth Hanna McCormick, who served in the United States House of Representatives. Although Tankersley was involved with conservative Republican causes as a young woman, including a friendship with Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, her Progressive roots reemerged in later years; by the 21st century, she had become a strong supporter of environmental causes and backed Barack Obama for president in 2008. A patron of many charities, her death in 2013 was attributed to Parkinson's disease.Joseph McCormick died when Tankersley was a child. Her mother remarried and moved the family to the southwestern United States where Tankersley spent considerable time riding horses. As a young woman, she had a journalism career, beginning at age 18 as a reporter for a newspaper published by her mother. She later ran a newspaper in Illinois with her first husband, Peter Miller, then became the publisher of the conservative Washington Times-Herald from 1949 to 1951. That paper was owned by her uncle, the childless Robert R. McCormick, who viewed Tankersley as his heir until the two had a falling out over editorial control of the newspaper and her relationship with Garvin Tankersley, who became her second husband. She wrote for the Washington Post after it absorbed the Times-Herald, then shifted her career to become a full-time horse breeder.Tankersley became fond of Arabian horses as a child when she lived in the southwest, and purchased her first Arabian horse at the age of 19. She set up her horse breeding operation, Al-Marah Arabians, in Tucson, Arizona in 1941, and took her horses and farm name with her whenever she moved. When she lived in Illinois, she purchased her foundation sire, a stallion named Indraff, in 1947. She ultimately returned to Tucson in the 1970s, and in those years set up an apprenticeship program to train young people for jobs in the horse industry. She also developed a second horse operation, the Hat Ranch, located near Flagstaff, Arizona. Over the course of her career, she bred over 2,800 registered Arabians, and also was one of the largest importers of horses from the Crabbet Arabian Stud in England. She bequeathed the Tucson ranch to the University of Arizona and the Hat Ranch to a conservation trust. A number of her horses were sold, and the remainder went to her son, Mark Miller, who breeds Arabians in Florida.".
