Anne Thrasher

Anne Thrasher was born in Letty Harbour, located on the Hudson's Bay Coast between Paulatuk and Cape Perry. In those early years she travelled frequently with her parents on the land and to different communities learning and collecting the stories she would later share with others in her community and beyond. She holds a degree in Education from the University of Saskatchewan and taught for many years throughout the Northwest Territories. She eventually settled in Paulatuk to raise her daughters closer to the land and teach them the importance of passing on traditional knowledge.
