Richard Erdoes
(b. 1912)

Richard Erdoes came into serious writing by accident in 1970, when a Sioux medicine man named Lame Deer asked Erdoes to write his life story. Since then, Erdoes authored numerous works on Native Americans, frontier life, and pioneer life, such as The Sound of Flutes and other Indian Legends (1976) and Lakota Woman (1990). Erdoes was born in Frankfurt, Germany and has lectured at many universities, including Yale, Princeton, and Dartmouth.
