Entertainer. She was a cowgirl wild west rodeo performer and businesswoman. Growing up on a ranch in Oklahoma by age 10 she was an expert at riding, throwing a rope, and branding calves. Her father, Zack Mulhall had a Wild West Show that included Will Rogers, Ellison Carroll, and Tom Mix. Mulhall's five children rode in the Grand Entry. After 1900 Lucille and her brother Charley were featured performers. For 15 years American and European audiences raved about the beautiful girl who could outrope and outride the men. Lucille earned such titles as "Champion Lady Steer Roper of the World" at the Calgary Stampede. She starred in the Mulhall's Wild West, the Miller Brothers' 101 Ranch Wild West show, and in vaudeville. In 1913 she formed her own troupe and in 1916 produced her own rodeo, the Lucille Mulhall's Roundup. Legend has it that Teddy Roosevelt promised her that if she could rope a wolf, he would invite her to his inauguration parade after seeing her ride at the Mulhall ranch. She came back three hours later dragging a dead wolf behind her. She was inducted into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum into their Rodeo Hall of Fame in 1975, and into the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame in 1977.
