In this legacy interview, Board Chair, Marci Burdick, sits down with 1984 Inductee Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve.
Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve is a well-respected teacher and the author of several children’s history books and adult non-fiction about Native Americans. Born February 21, 1933, on the Rosebud Indian Reservation, Sneve has worked to dispel the common stereotypes of Native Americans and to document their proud histories through her writings, often drawing from her ancestors’ own experiences on the reservations.
President Bill Clinton presented Driving Hawk Sneve with a National Humanities Medal in Washington, D.C., on December 20, 2000, when he honored twenty-four people for supporting the growth and availability of the Arts and Humanities to the general public. Driving Hawk Sneve is the first South Dakotan to receive the National Humanities Medal.
