James Willard Schultz, also known as Apikuni, was an American writer, explorer, fur trader, guide, and historian who lived from 1859 to 1947. He is remembered for his extensive work documenting the culture and history of the Blackfeet Indians. Schultz operated a fur trading post in Montana and spent several years living among the Pikuni tribe, gaining firsthand experience of their customs and traditions. His career included roles as a Glacier National Park guide and historian, which helped preserve Native American heritage during a period of rapid change. Born in Boonville, New York, Schultz was drawn to the American West, where he explored vast landscapes and recorded frontier life. His writings, including novels and historical accounts, provide valuable insight into Native American culture and early western exploration. Schultz's deep connection with the Blackfeet people allowed him to capture their way of life with respect and detail. He passed away at the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming at the age of 87. His work remains a significant source for understanding the Blackfeet and the early frontier era.
