Comments: Dear Mr.Schellenberg, Formal I know yet I do respect you in your work. It has given me so much pleasure in seeing you in all of the Native American roles you have done. I just finished watching Comanche Moon in which I am sure it is you but not listed in the credits. Quite pivotal. That was a time of change for the Native American according to my history professors at Sacramento State in 1974-1975 in my Native American minor. I really got interested in Native American culture when my family discovered we had a common ancestor with Will Rogers. I later married someone who had a touch of Choctoaw, Ute, and Paiute in him. My children now have that touch also. I have tried to bring them up with respect to Native American history along with all the other history left out of the school history books. By the way I also have a teaching credential in California in Social Science and I could go all day with discussing Native Americans. My daughter-in-law(married to my ex's oldest son) is a Jicarilla Apache and an activist by the name of Nancy Ray. We are a United Nations family with everyone in the mix. I have seen you in so many movies such as "Kelly", the "Free Willy" series and some others. I enjoy your quiet confidence and competence in your acting. I weant to thank you for the pleasure you give me in watching your characters in your movies. By the way my e-mail address was developed by my son who made it from the breed of parrot I own and my birthdate before anyone gets the wrong idea. Gail
