Gabriel Horn (White Deer of Autumn) is an award-winning author and professor
of literature and creative writing. From reservation schools, to American
Indian Movement (AIM) Survival Schools, to public schools and universities,
he has advocated the respect due the history, literature, and philosophy of
Native America. As an activist for the spiritual rights of indigenous
peoples, and an outspoken defender of the natural world, some have called
him an agitator and militant, others a warrior and wisdomkeeper. He is, most
notably, an eclectic writer, whose body of work includes Native Heart,
Contemplations of a Primal Mind, and The Book of Ceremonies. Excerpts of his
works have been anthologized in college texts on writing and for Western
Humanities. In 2004, one of his books for children, The Great Change, was
honored at the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts where he gave a
performative reading. 

 

Booklist called Gabriel Horn. "A generous, searching writer." and his work
".mesmerizing. lyrical. powerful"; The Tampa Tribune, ".insightful and
eloquent"; the American Indian Library Journal, ".too appealing to resist
reading a second time"; and Spirituality & Health magazine stated that "..
Horn demonstrates a kind of radical amazement, a deep feeling tinged with
both awe and wonder.."
