Himmelheber, Hans, Fienup-Riordan, Ann

SUMMARY

Hans Himmelheber describes the cultural and artistic heritage of the Yup'ik in southwestern Alaska during the late 1930s.

Himmelheber includes family histories, daily and ceremonial activities of the men and women he met, and their opinions about artistic expression.Himmelheber, Hans is the author of 'Eskimo Artists' with ISBN 9780912006697 and ISBN 0912006692.
