Folk hero. Songwriter icon. Living legend. Buffy Sainte-Marie is all of these things and more. In this, Sainte-Marie's first and only authorized biography, music critic Andrea Warner draws from more than sixty hours of exclusive interviews to offer a powerful, intimate look at the life of the beloved artist and everything that she has accomplished in her seventy-seven years (and counting). Since her groundbreaking debut, 1964's It's My Way!, the Cree singer -songwriter has been a trailblazer and a tireless advocate for Indigenous rights and freedoms, an innovative artist, and a disruptor of the status quo. Establishing herself among the ranks of folk greats such as Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan, she has released more than twenty albums, survived being blacklisted by two U.S. presidents, and received countless accolades, including the only Academy Award ever to be won by a First Nations artist. But this biography does more than celebrate Sainte-Marie's unparalleled talent as a songwriter and entertainer; packed with insight and knowledge, it offers an unflinchingly honest, heartbreakingly real portrait of the woman herself, including the challenges she experienced on the periphery of showbiz, her healing from the trauma of childhood and intimate partner violence, her commitment to activism, and her leadership in the protest movement."-- |cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Sainte-Marie, Buffy. 600 17 Sainte-Marie, Buffy.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00240353 650 0 Women singers|zCanada|vBiography. 650 0 Women composers|zCanada|vBiography. 650 0 Cree women|zCanada|vBiography. 650 7 Musicians.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01030837 650 9 Indian women singers|zCanada|vBiography. 650 9 Indian women activists|zCanada|vBiography. 651 7 Canada.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204310 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 690 7 Indigenous women singers|zCanada|vBiography.|2local DEI term 690 7 Indigenous women activists|zCanada|vBiography.|2local DEI term 700 1 Mitchell, Joni,|ewriter of foreword. 914 MID.b25942256 994 C0|bCKE
