Abstract

Final half of a talk by Dr. Donald Hines. Hines authored several books on the history of the area, including Magic in the Mountains, the Yakima Shaman: Power & Practice. In 1969 he received a PhD in folklore and American studies from Indiana University. He joined the faculty of Washington State University in 1968, where he became associate professor of folklore in the literary studies program. In 1973, he received a National Endowment for the Humanities grant to study the folklore of pioneers of the inland Pacific Northwest frontier, and he published several indices of resources on the subject. In 1981 he took a post as an English teacher at King Saud University in Abha, Saudi Arabia, where he remained for nine years. After his return from Saudi Arabia in 1990, he joined the faculty at Blue Mountain Community College in Pendleton, Oregon, where he taught English. He also taught English in the education department at Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution.
