Trivia:

In 1936, Chief Tahachee was one of the founders and a charter member of the Indian Actors' Association (IAA). The IAA was organized by American Indian actors to combat use of non-Indian's by some studios, and of engaging pseudo-American Indians for the faking of American Indian roles and/or fabricating American Indian dialects. The IAA was eventually absorbed by the Screen Actors Guild. See more »
