About the Author
Edward A. kennard collaborated with Hopi storyteller Albert Yava to create this story as part of a literacy project for the Department of Education, Bureau of Indian Affairs, in 1944.
Hopi artist Fred Kabotie (1900-1986) began his artistic career by illustrating Taytay's Memories a book of stories by Elizabeth DeHuff. He continued to illustrate books and stories throughout his illustrious career, which included commissions from the Heye Foundation, the Fred Harvey Company, and the Indian Arts and Crafts Board; a Guggenheim Fellowship; teaching painting in the Hopi schools; and directing the Hopi Arts and Crafts Guild. He is generally regarded as the dean of early Southwestern Indian painting.
