Chief Dan George - 1972 or 1973

Sudbury Ontario.

Chief Dan George was not only chief of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, near Vancouver, but an author, actor and poet. He famously starred with Dustin Hoffman in Little Big Man in 1970, and appeared in a number of other Hollywood films. He also spoke publicly about native rights issues, which is why he was at this event.

He died in 1981.

Shot originally with a Pentax Spotmatic 2 on Ilford HP4. Negative photographed with Fujifilm X-T1 and MCEX-16 extension tube.
