Author Information

Debra Corbett, Diane Hanson, and Mark Luttrell met during an archaeological survey on Adak Island to document selections by The Alaska Corporation through the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA), not realizing that they would be brought together 40 years later to write (and illustrate) this book. Debra Corbett went on to complete a Master’s degree in Anthropology from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, then became an archaeologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the agency that manages the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge of which the Aleutian Islands are a part. Through her work and several research projects within the refuge, she spent the rest of her career working in the Chain. Following the Adak Survey Diane Hanson left to complete a doctoral degree in Archaeology from Simon Fraser University after working in the Northwest Coast. She returned to Alaska working for the USDA Forest Service, State of Alaska Office of History and Archaeology, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Alaska District, eventually settling at the University of Alaska Anchorage where she launched another archaeological project not far from the ANCSA survey area on Adak Island. Mark Luttrell, through Debra’s encouragement, incorporated illustration into his archaeological expertise and established a scientific illustration business called Artifact Illustration in Seward, Alaska. He has worked primarily on North Pacific coastal sites from Yakutat and the Prince William Sound to Kenai Fjords National Park, and in the Aleutian Islands.
