Writer and historian Janet Clinger and I documented the efforts of three generations of Native Americans in California committed to keeping their native culture alive and thriving, as they straddle living in two worlds. For fourteen thousand years the ancestors of contemporary Ohlone peoples served as caretakers of this beautiful region—from San Francisco to Point Sur.
The photos and desktop published book represent only a small portion of present day Ohlone who are currently active in various aspects of cultural revitalization and committed to keeping their cultural expressions alive for generations to come. We dedicate this project to all of the Ohlone and their ongoing efforts and struggles to restore the rich legacy of their ancestors.
