Explore - Will Rogers State Historic Park

Will Rogers was the first media superstar of the twentieth century- beginning with his silent movie fame in Hollywood during the 1930s, Will also became a newspaper columnist, a radio show commentator, an author, a technology enthusiast, recycler and an early airplane flight promoter. Growing up in Indian Territory as a Cherokee Native (Present day Oklahoma), Will came from a simple and humble background. Thanks to Will’s love for entertaining and land conservation, Will Rogers State Historic Park Museum goes beyond the movie star and shows the many aspects of Will Rogers’ passions.
