Abstract

Assiniboine author William Yellow Robe, Jr., began his career in the theater as an actor. Although his acting skills were respected, there were few roles for Native people. He began writing his own plays, creating roles not just for himself but other Native actors as well. One of the results of his work is "Where the Pavement Ends", a new book comprised of five of Yellow Robe's most poignant and powerful plays.
