The Last Plains Indian Chief
from The Sweet Smell of Sagebrush
Chief Joe Medicine Crow was the last remaining chief of the Crow Indian tribe. I spent a day with this extraordinary man at a Crow camp outside of Meeteetse, Wyoming in 2011. He told me his remarkable story on how he became a chief of his tribe. Joe was the first Crow to obtain a Master's degree in anthropology, and he enlisted in the Army in 1943 and fought the Germans in France. This is his story as he told it to me.
