The first motion picture star to live in Wyoming was William F. Cody, also known as Buffalo Bill. He was the subject of the first-ever western movie, "Congress of Rough Riders," made by the Edison Company in 1893.

That same year, one of the grandest hotels in Wyoming opened in Sheridan. The Sheridan Inn would later serve as an audition platform for acts wishing to join Cody's famed Wild West Show. Cody led the Grand March for the Inn's gala opening night. Later part owner, he would audition talented Wyoming cowboys from his seat on the veranda.
