John Woodenlegs

John Woodenlegs (12 November 1909 - December 1981 in Billings, Montana) was an author, educator, and the tribal president of the Northern Cheyenne from 1955 to 1968. In 1975, he founded Chief Dull Knife College, a community college located in Lame Deer, Montana.〔(Author biography of John Woodenlegs ) at University of Oklahoma Press〕
Woodenlegs was the grandson of Wooden Leg, who fought against General George A. Custer’s troops at the Battle of Little Big Horn in 1876. During his life, Woodenlegs also worked as a cowboy, road worker, coal miner and rancher. He was also the first American Indian to receive an honorary degree from the University of Montana.〔
Whitney Smith, a U.S. vexillologist, credits Woodenlegs with having designed the flag of the Northern Cheyenne, which was approved for display in 1964.〔(Northern Cheyenne ); at CRW Flags; by Michael Smuda; published January 7, 1999; retrieved December 24, 2013〕 In 1967, Woodenlegs was the sole American Indian member of the National Advisory Commission on Rural Poverty convened by President Lyndon B. Johnson.〔
A quote from Woodenlegs appears in ''Going Rogue'' by Sarah Palin, though she mistakenly attributes it to basketball coach John Wooden.〔(Palin Book Attributes Leftist Native-American's Quote to UCLA's John Wooden ), at ''Politics Daily''; by David Sessions; published December 1, 2009; retrieved December 24, 2013〕
