Luther Metke

Luther Metke (February 20, 1885 – April 7, 1985〔) was an American folk poet and early central Oregon pioneer who served in the Spanish American War. He was the subject of Jorge Preloran's Academy Award nominated documentary ''Luther Metke at 94''. Metke moved to Central Oregon in 1907 and built nearly every bridge between Bend and Crescent and over 30 log cabins.〔〔
== Early life ==
Metke was born in Buffalo, New York〔 and was brought up on a homestead in Minnesota. He started building log cabins as a young boy, helping other homesteaders, and immigrant families build homes. He enrolled in the US Navy in 1898, at the age of 15, saw battle in the Spanish American War, and served in the Philippines, Japan, and China.〔 During an expedition up the Yangtze river, Metke saw the impact that deforestation and uncontrolled logging could have on the environment; this experience would strongly influence his poetry. He was married to Anna Dobbs, of Ireland and they had two sons and two daughters.
