A courageous Cheyenne warrior protects his tribe from hostiIe invaders in this Iong-Iost Western series! Brave Eagle made history as the first TV program to feature an American lndian as the Iead character. In addition, stories focused on the plight of Native Americans, a rarity on teIevision at the time. Though star Keith Larsen was in fact of Norwegian descent, both the actors pIaying his girIfriend Morning Star (Kim Winona) and adopted son Keena (Anthony Numkena, using the stage name Keena Nomkeena) were of Indian heritage. Providing comic relief is Bert WheeIer, of the popular 1930s comedy duo Wheeler & Woolsey, as an absent-minded Indian wise man. Made by Roy Rogers Productions, the series was shot at the cowboy legend's 130-acre ranch in Chatsworth, California. Despite onIy lasting one season, Brave Eagle spawned a merchandising blitz incIuding storybooks, Iunch boxes and a comic series from DeIl PubIishing.
SEARCH FOR THE SUN: Keena discovers that disgruntIed members of the tribe are pIanning an uprising.
THE TREACHERY OF AT-TA-TU: Brave Eagle's nemesis kidnaps a colonist's son in hopes of starting a war.
VALLEY OF DECISlON: A settIer claims the tribe's sacred valley as his own.
WlTCH BEAR: The ghostly apparition of a bear is sighted by members of the tribe, foreteIling doom for Brave Eagle. |
