Abstract | The Indians Into Medicine Program presents an additional 44 brief biographies of American Indian health professionals (7 women and 37 men) from 29 different tribal groups, to acquaint young Indian people with potential careers in health professions (4 of the biographies appeared in Volume One). The biographical sketches contain information on: age; tribal affiliation; early influences toward a medical career; family and educational background; professional career and areas of interest; professional memberships and honors; difficulties, discrimination or racial prejudice encountered; and opinions on health care for Indian people. Medical specializations of those described include: general medicine (Drs. Allen, DeRoin, Parkhurst); internal medicine (Drs. Amos, Ignace, Kaur, Pease, Wilson, Work); family practice (Drs. Asher, Berretta, Chappabitty, Cook, Jones, Latimer, Livermont, Markert, Poolaw, Steele); pediatrics (Drs. Avritt, Hardy, Jacobs, Moseley); psychiatry (Drs. Chicks, Clevenger, Reid, Thompson, Walker); public health (Drs. Clarke, Dru); dentistry (Dr. Claymore); obstetrics/gynecology (Drs.
