 Gay
Kingman, Cheyenne River Sioux, South Dakota. 25-year
career as teacher, principal, tribal college president;
past positions include Executive Director of the
National Congress of American Indians and Public
Relations Director of the National Indian Gaming
Association. A fierce defender of tribal rights
and sovereignty, in 1991 the tribes of NCAI passed
a resolution commending Kingman for her graciousness
under pressure, her effectiveness in testifying
before Congress, and her skill in coordinating lobbying
campaigns. Tribes often seek out Kingman and her
husband, Tim Wapato, for expertise and advice.
