Publications:
I am working with Raymond DeMallie on editing Fr. Buechel's ethnographic fieldnotes. I am also working on a visual biography of Father Eugene Buechel, S.J.

Exhibits:
I am also working on a photographic exhibit of Fr. Joseph Zimmerman's Lakota photographs with the director of the Betty Strong Encounter Center in Sioux City, Iowa. I also advised the Encouner Center on an upcoming exhibit loaned from the Heritage Center at Red Cloud Indian School on the Pine Ridge reservation

Bibliographies:
I currently maintain a comprehensive Lakota / Dakota bibliongraphy on the web as a service to Lakota, Dakota and other scholars. Researchers need to maintain their reciprocal relations with their host communities so this is one way I make a return: to make this information freely available by way of the web. I invite you to view the Lakota / Dakota research bibliography. I also maintain a Lakota Dakots health bibliography.

Museum Work:
My main research interest of late is Lakota material culture.I am continuing my work at the Buechel Memorial Lakota Museum, an on-line database of Fr. Eugene Buechel, S.J.'s material culture collection and associated documentation. I am preparing a new virtual exhibit: "The Art of War - The Aesthetics of Lakota War Charms in the Buechel Museum Collection."
