Frank M. Bogert is considered to be a 20th century legend in Palm Springs. In addition to being an actor and heavily involved in rodeo, he was a City Council member and then the major twice. When he left office in 1988, he was succeeded by Sonny Bono. Bogert was a few months away from being a centenarian when he died in 2009. This equestrian sculpture by Raymundo Kobo was erected in front of City Hall in 1989.
