Chief Rising Sun, (third from left) entertained us at my fifth birthday party.
I still have this Ute drum:
Chief Rising Sun
I guess you could say that my birthday parties have been going downhill ever since. Chief Rising Sun helped my father with the 1937 production of "The Sundance," an opera that was composed by William Hanson in collaboration with a Sioux woman, Gertrude Simmons Bonnin.

I love this story of your bday party and the Ute drum which we have in our living room. A piece of the music world's history.
Love,
Janet
