Sarah Sadlier, winner of one of the Stanford Libraries’ 2015 Wreden Prizes for Collecting Books and Related Materials, was selected as a research assistant for a Cantor Arts Center exhibition of a warrior’s rarely seen visual account of the famous Little Bighorn battle.

Sarah, whose ancestor “Big Leggins” Bruguier was an interpreter for Sitting Bull and present in the Little Bighorn camp the day the fighting began, traveled to Washington, D.C. in the summer of 2015 to conduct archival research on Red Horse at the Smithsonian. Red Horse: Drawings of the Battle of the Little Bighorn is on display through May 9, 2016.
