STORY

These Yup’ik stories were told by Igiugig elders Mike Andrew and Mary Olympic in 2007.

 

The stories were adapted for print by a team of individuals, including AlexAnna Salmon (story gatherer, translations), Annie Wilson and Evelyn Yanez (Elders & language consultants), Ann Luthy (text, design & illustrations), Sassa Peterson (translations & editing), Andyn Gunlik (editing), Beth Chun (text, consulting editor), Gary Anderson (tech support), and A.J. Gooden (text, project coordinator). The book was published by Igiugig Village Council for future generations, made possible through grants from the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Administration of Native Americans.
