ABOUT FACULTY AND STAFF
Linda Waggoner Book Reading and Signing, April 24 at Copperfield's
Linda Waggoner reads from her new book, "Fire Light: The Life of Angel
De Cora, Winnebago Artist" at 7 p.m. on Fri., April 24, at Copperfield's Books in
Petaluma.
De Cora left her childhood home on the Winnebago reservation in 1883 to be
one of the first American Indian artists to be accepted within the
mainstream art world. Despite scant documentary sources that elucidate De
Cora’s private life, Waggoner renders a full picture of De Cora’s life in
this thoughtful and insightful biography.
Waggoner has taught at SSU in the philosophy, AMCS & NAMS departments
since 1992. She is now teaching for the Osher Lifelong Learning Center.
