Before John Washakie started writing, he spent 18 years on the Eastern Shoshone Business Council. While on the council he made numerous presentations to the House of Representatives and the Senate Select Committee on Indian Affairs. He was appointed by three different Department of Interior Secretaries to serve on national committees addressing issues from reorganization of the Bureau of Indian Affairs to Energy Policy. he earned a BA in History from the University of Wyoming and is a veteran of the Vietnam War. With the tradition of stroytelling being almost gone, John decided he must use the technologies of computers, printing and publishing to save these stories so they would once again be passed on. JOhn is the great-grandson of Chief Washakie, whose statue resides in the rotunda of our nations capitol
