My Two Friends: Mari Sandoz and John G. Neihardt

John Neihardt, Mari Sandoz and Ron Hull produced many hours of television programs during the 1960s and '70s. The substance of these planning sessions provides anecdotes and stories about their lives and work. Sandoz and Neihardt were friends, and their approach to their art and the methods they used were vastly different. The examples given are corroborated in Helen Stauffer’s "Mari Sandoz: Story of the Plains and Letters of Mari Sandoz."
