History Hounds - A Natural Poet: Jane Johnston Schoolcraft

As a member of the Historical Society of Michigan (HSM), the Hastings Public Library is able to give patrons access to virtual presentations on Michigan history that we showed in our Community Room pre-COVID.

Born in Sault Ste. Marie in 1800, Jane Johnston Schoolcraft was a prolific writer of poems and stories. Her Ojibway mother and European-American fur trader father instilled in her a love for the written word and sharing her heritage. Come to hear about this amazing woman, who was the first-known Native-American writer.
