Autorenporträt

James Willard Schultz (1859–1947) was an American author, explorer, Glacier National Park guide, fur trader, and historian of the Blackfoot Indians. Born in Boonville, New York, Schultz ventured into the American West, specifically Montana, and was eventually adopted into the Pikuni (Piegan) band of the Blackfoot tribe. Through his intimate experiences with the Blackfoot people, Schultz acquired a profound respect and unique perspective on Native American culture, which he vividly depicted in his writings. His first book, 'My Life as an Indian' (1907), recounts his life among the Pikuni and his subsequent books continue to express his experiences and deep understanding of Blackfoot culture and the transformation of the American West. Notably, 'Rising Wolf, the White Blackfoot' (1919), Schultz's fictional account of Hugh Monroe's life among the Blackfeet, reflects his literary style that blends authenticity with the compelling narrative, marked by his insider's view of tribal history and ethnographic details. Schultz's work is recognized for its contribution to the Western frontier literature and continues to be a valuable resource for ethnologists and historians alike. His style exemplifies the 'as-told-to' genre in which Schultz often framed Native voices within his storytelling, thereby preserving the oral traditions and experiences of the Blackfoot nation for posterity.
