"This is a reminder to announce the screening tomorrow night of Sandra and Yasu Osawa's new groundbreaking documentary film, "Maria Tallchief," about America's first Native American prima ballerina."

"The film is a compelling portrait of a remarkable woman. It includes srare footage of Tallchief's performances, which a New York Times critic described as, "fury and passion and an unearthly magic."

"Sandra Osawa is an important documentary filmmaker. Many of us show her films in our classes on a regular basis. We are fortunate to have her on the campus to present her work.

"I know we are all extremely busy, and it's difficult to respond to the many projects and activities in our community. But I hope you will attend, and urge campus and community members to attend as well.
