Henry Wood Elliott: An American Artist in Alaska

Discusses his stereotypical depiction of Native Alaskans such as Tlingit Indians and Aleutian fishermen. Includes a brief bibliography. From the Smithsonian National Anthropological Archives and Human Studies Film Archives; originally printed in the Arctic Studies Center Newsletter.
