Leona Prince is a Dakelh woman from the Lake Babine Nation and Nak’azdli.
Leona has always had a love for traditional and contemporary stories. The two most prominent storytellers in her life were my Sakiy (Great-Aunt) Catherine Caldwell and my Stseets (Grandfather) John Barfoot. When she was a little girl, each of them would weave stories from the two cultures that she descends from. Her Aunt wove beautiful stories from her Dakelh history that spoke of creation as a people.
From a young age, she understood the power of story. She is a mother of three and is a passionate and award-winning educator. She is also now the author of two beautiful children’s books: Be a Good Ancestor and A Dance Through the Seasons
