  • Acknowledgments
    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For me there are several layers of “thanks with appreciation” about my learning and re- thinking the Ishi saga over time. A wide swath of territory in northern California was involved. Help I received in researching several subject areas must be addressed. There was the preliminary scholarship of Ishi’s life-story profled shortly after Ishi’s contact years (1911-1916). This layer of gratitude I extend to Thomas T. Waterman (1918b) Alfred L. Kroeber (1925) and Saxton T. Pope Sr.. (1920). Contributor in 1915 was linguist Edward Sapir who “captured his readiest language, the southernmost Yana language, christened the Yahi language. There was afterwards a hiatus of almost ffty years when Ishi, the man, was almost forgot- ten, save for Pope’s 1925 Hunting with the Bow and Arrow. In 1949, some readers heard anew about Ishi from W. H. Hutchinson’s “Ishi – The Unconquered” published in Natural History, Vol. 58. Theodora Kroeber made Ishi famous for a second time by writing. in 1961, Ishi In Two Worlds (University of California Press) and by publishing in the Book Section of the Reader’s Digest (December 1961) her condensed version of her book. I credit Theodora Kroeber for inspiring me about Ishi. That traditional California Indians could successfully “call in” to them the animals from the forest foor intrigued me. If they knew that much about the animal world, what more did they know about the Land? Promoting the Ishi story were Robert Heizer and Albert Elsasser. I acknowledge both of them for collecting, reviewing, and publishing data about Ishi that I have used.

Chosen for their success in meeting the needs of Angelenos by providing a high level of social, educational and cultural services, LAPL was specifically recognized for its programs that help people on their path to citizenship, earn their high school diploma, manage their personal finances, and access health and well-being services and resources. The power of these library services is illustrated by the story of Sergio and Francisca Sanchez: After moving to the U.S. from Veracruz, Mexico, Sergio and Francisca brought their toddler son to the Los Angeles Public Library for storytime, and continued to bring him for many years. Sergio studied English and history and read the news at the library during his free time. While waiting for his son, Sergio discovered that library staff and services could help him study for and pass the U.S.
