Jack McAfee

Jack McAfee started working as a trapeze artist with the circus during summer vacations as a child. He started a bareback riding act, three years later, which lasted for 17 years. He was the "first person to successfully ride 12 horses around the circus track." McAfee learned makeup from Lon Chaney and in his later life was seen on KTLA's TV program "Circus," as "Bobo the Clown."
