Robin's grandfather and great-uncles were survivors of the Cushman Boarding School, having been removed from their parents and experienced the horrors of having their hair cut, not being able to speak their language, and losing their culture. This heritage, along with Dr. Ladue's passion for helping Native women raise healthy babies and addressing the problems of oppression and loss in Native communities, were driving forces in her personal and professional life. She received her master's and doctorate degrees from Washington State University. Dr. Ladue has been affiliated with the University of Missouri, Kansas City; the University of Washington's Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences; the Native American Center for Excellence; and Waikato University in Hamilton, New Zealand. The award-winning author of the Journey through the Healing Circle books and video, Dr. LaDue has lectured worldwide on the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure and historical trauma in Native American communities, as well as the treatment for and consequences of psychological trauma, including traditional Native methods of treatment. She is an enrolled member of the Stl'pulmsh Indian Tribe of Washington. This is her first historical novel.ver menos
