Tish McFadden lives in Ashland, Oregon. She is a published author, published songwriter, and music educator. She is also a former United States Forest Service archaeologist and historian – the career that originally introduced her in 1980 to Agnes Baker Pilgrim, spiritual elder of the Takelma people. Years later, in 2016, Agnes Baker Pilgrim became the inspiration for Tish’s book and educational program, Upriver to Morning. Tish’s occupation as an author, educator, musician, performer, and recording artist spans forty years. Upriver to Morning is a synthesis of her life’s work in environmental and cultural resource preservation, teaching, writing, and music. The book, and its array of bilingual educational content, is scheduled to be released by fall 2021.
