"Crowe, Amanda
Amanda Crowe was born in 1928 in the Qualla Cherokee community in
North Carolina. She was drawing and carving at the age of 4 and
selling her work at age 8. She received her MFA from the Chicago
Arts Institute in 1952 and then studied in Mexico at the Instituto
Allende in San Miguel under a John Quincy Adams fellowship. She had
been away from home for 12 years when the Cherokee Historical
Association invited her back to teach art and woodcarving at the
Cherokee High School. . . ."
"Fields, Richard
Richard Fields was Chief of the Texas Cherokees from 1821 until his
death in 1827. Assisted by Bowl and others, he spent much time in
Mexico City, first with the Spanish government and later with the
government of Mexico, trying to acquire a clear title to their
land. They also had to contend with rumors started by white Texans
regarding their intended alliances with Comanches, Tawakonis, and
other Indian tribes to attack San Antonio. . . ."
