In 1969 N. Scott Momaday was awarded The Pulitzer Prize for "House Made of Dawn." By getting the Pulitzer Prize allowed the door to be opened for Native American writers and the rest of (white) American readers were exposed to a different world within America. Momaday went on to write:"The Ancient Child," "The Way to Rainy Mountain," "In the Bear's House," "The Names: A Memoir" and a few others. It has been a few years since he has come out with a novel. I don't know if he will.
