Physical education teacher and artist David Boxley of Metlakatla teaches an elective course on traditional Tsimshian culture. Far too often, knowledge of the old ways can be found only in books. People such as David Boxley are, therefore, more important than ever before to the student's identity development.
Next to his house in Metlakatla, David Boxley has turned a shed into a workshop, where he spends his spare time working on his art. At the time we visited him in 1985 he was carving a crest board with the heraldic animal of his family, an eagle represented in double profile.
