Portrayed by: Charlton Heston

Suggested by: Henry Hooker



Henry Hooker is a powerful rancher in the Arizona territory. He has suffered cattle and horse rustling at the hands of the Cowboys, but has done little to actively fight their activities beyond protecting his own lands as best as he can. Hooker allows his ranch to be used as a temporary refuge for Wyatt Earp and his deputies during their pursuit of the Cowboys. He also offers to protect Doc Holliday while he recovers.

It is at Hooker's ranch that the stagecoach stops off for water and Wyatt has a parting encounter with Josephine Marcus and learns of Mr. Fabian's murder. It is also while they are at Hooker's ranch that Sherman McMasters leaves to parley with the Cowboys and murdered, which prompts Wyatt to accept Johnny Ringo's challenge.
