If you've watched old Western movies, you were bound to see Dean Smith, lassoing his rope, riding horses, and taking some punches. Smith was a stunt double for over 50 years, and most of the time he never got on screen credit. This weekend, Dean is receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Okla. Weekend America Guest Host Amy Scott speaks with Smith about his days as a cowboy and finally getting his dues.
