A courageous Cheyenne warrior protects his tribe from hostile invaders in this long-lost Western series! Brave Eagle made history as the first TV program to feature an American Indian as the lead character. In addition, stories focused on the pIight of Native Americans, a rarity on television at the time. Though star Keith Larsen was in fact of Norwegian descent, both the actors playing his girlfriend Morning Star (Kim Winona) and adopted son Keena (Anthony Numkena, using the stage name Keena Nomkeena) were of lndian heritage. Providing comic relief is Bert WheeIer, of the popuIar 1930s comedy duo Wheeler & WooIsey, 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, lunch boxes and a comic series from DeIl PubIishing.
