A Cherokee woman born to the bird clan, Pam lives and works on her grandmother’s allotment land in N.E. Oklahoma, growing organic food and bees and consulting with NGOs. Born and raised in the shadow and secrecy of atomic bomb building, her father began work at Hanford in 1943 (Manhattan plutonium production facility in Washington state) and her brother managed a Hanford nuclear reactor for 30 years. Later, her community organizing assisted in stopping the production of 23% of the world's uranium supply at the notoriously contaminated Kerr-McGee “Sequoyah Fuels” plant in Gore, Oklahoma.
