Katie Gale was born into a Salish community in Puget Sound in the 1850s, just as settlers were migrating into what would become Washington State. With her people forced out of their accustomed hunting and fishing grounds into ill-provisioned island camps and reservations, she sought her fortune in Oyster Bay. In the early outpost of multiculturalism - where Native Americans and immigrants vied for economic, social, political and legal power - a woman like Gale could make her way.
