‘Yellowstone’ star Dawn Olivieri chose Arkansas ranch life over LA to reclaim her ‘freedom’
Dawn Olivieri says a lull in acting work prompted her to reconsider the life she was pursuing in Los Angeles. In 2022, she moved to rural Arkansas to build the ranch and animal sanctuary she had imagined, saying the change helped her feel more authentic and improved her acting career.
Olivieri bought 160 acres outside Mena and founded Moon Mountain Sanctuary and Rescue in 2023, which rescues and rehabilitates hundreds of horses and other animals. She has said she is living in a camper while developing the property. Her “Homestead: The Series” co-star Charles Esten agreed that letting go of pressure to land work can sometimes bring new opportunities.
In short
- Dawn Olivieri left Los Angeles for a ranch in Arkansas.
