Scope and Content
From the Collection:
This collection of recorded music was donated to the University of New Mexico Fine Arts Library in 1966 by Mrs. Margaret G. Hindes, who obtained the material from several Native American friends. Part of the music in this collection was recorded by Chief and Mrs. John Marvin, of the Western Mono Indian tribe of California. The social songs were sung by Maggie Marvin, Sam Sample, May Sample, Emma Chepo, Elizabeth Polkenhorn, and Susan Johnson during a gathering at Mrs. Marvin's house in California in 1961. Susan Johnson performed an unedited story and song of the Mono tribe (1966), which was recorded. A transcription of her story is included with this finding aid.
