Ben Pearson – 1992

A boyhood hobby turned into a career of international renown for this archery expert. His instrument was the longbow, and he took it on hunting trips to several continents and into a highly successful business enterprise. He is most notable for starting the first company in the United States to mass-produce archery sets and equipment.  In 1972, he was among the first inducted into the Archery Hall of Fame.
