About the Author
Author Lee Roscoe beautifully articulates the tribe's spiritual and material lifeways through their arts. She had access to the tribe's artists thanks to her years of activism, spearheading the saving of hundreds of acres land, some sacred to the tribe, organizing thousands of signatures in favor of the tribe's federal recognition, and writing numerous articles about the tribe for Provincetown Arts magazine, The Cape Cod Times, Journal of the Genealogical Society of Cape Cod, The Cape Cod Chronicle, etc.
Lee is a longtime journalist, covering arts, science, history and hard news, currently a correspondent for Artscope and Provincetown magazines. She is a Woods Hole Ocean Journalism fellow, an awarded environmentalist, and playwright of dramas including The Mooncusser's Tale, a Cape Cod radio drama, and the film Dreams from a Planet in Peril. Cape Cod Museum of Art's director calls the film, "an important piece of art." Her work has often been supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
