    Born on a Cree reservation in Saskatchewan, Canada, Sainte-Marie was adopted and raised in the United States. After graduating in fine arts at the University of Massachusetts, she began performing in the early 1960s.

    These days, Sainte-Marie performs rarely, and mostly on Native American reservations. She devotes most of her energy to the Cradleboard Teaching Project, which aims to counter the Indian studies material that she discovered being presented to her son at school, which she described as "dead text about dead Indians'.
