From the Forward by Governor Bill Anoatubby: "In the Chickasaw Nation, older members of society, known as elders, are revered for their knowledge, wisdom and courage....They have seen things that our eyes may never...witness. They have heard songs and stories that have long since been carried off by the winds of time...If we listen to their stories before they fade from memory, we can receive a unique insight into our shared past...As any student of history knows, portrait paintings are usually reserved for highly respected members of society...What better way to honor these important members of our society than on canvas?" From the "Come, brother..." page: "The journey of 'They Know Who They Are' began as a nebulous idea by my husband, Mike Larsen...Mike has often used his research toward painting a group or series of paintings on connected subject matter....This time Mike wanted to interview Chickasaw elders as part of a living history....It is our desire that this adventure into the lives and history of these Chickasaw elders will prove invaluable to those who seek to understand what our elders have to say to the generations that follow." Portraits and interviews include (not limited to): Catherine Willmond, Charlie Carter, Governor Overton James, Jack Ray, Hattie Harjo, Mary and Samuel Alexander, etc.
