Ted Turner Jr.

Born in 1946 in Ardmore, Oklahoma, TED TURNER graduated from Classen Sr. High School in Oklahoma City and went on to Central State College. Ted realized early in life that his heartfelt desire was to train and show world-class horses throughout the United States. This dream has been fulfilled as he has become one of the industry's top horsemen. His career began in Yukon, OK where he rented stalls and operated his first training facility. The next stop was Durant, OK for 3 years and then on to Elbert, CO. Tioga Ranch, his first breeding and training operation, was opened in 1989 in Tioga, Texas and later sold to Tim and Colleen McQuay. His final move was to Aubrey, TX with his wife Darlene. And, as they say in Hollywood "the rest is history."
