Mark Trahant among six named to National Native American Hall of Fame

FORT HALL (Idaho Capital Sun) —

Two Shoshone-Bannock Tribes members have joined four other inductees as part of the 2023 National Native American Hall of Fame.

All six Native Americans come from various backgrounds, including law, journalism, advocacy, writing and entertainment. The induction ceremony for the new members will take place this fall.

From the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, Mark Trahant is the editorat-large at Indian Country Today. A Pulitzer Prize-nominated journalist and former president of the Native American Journalists Association, the hall of fame is honoring Trahant for his work reporting in Native American communities.

Trahant was the co-author of a series on federal Indian policy, and he has written multiple books.

The five other 2023 inductees include Shoshone-Bannock Tribes member LaNada Means War Jack, a writer, activist and the first Native American student admitted to the University of California at Berkeley in 1968; Richard Trudell, a Santee Dakota and the founder of the American Indian Lawyer Training program; Joe DeLaCruz, the long-serving president of the Quinault Indian Nation; Will Sampson, a film and television actor from the Muscogee Creek Tribes; and Leslie Marmon Silko, an award-winning writer from the Laguna Pueblo Tribe.
