Biography

Apesanahkwat is a registered member of the Menominee Tribe of Wisconsin and has been elected tribal chairman eight times, a record achievement.

He served in the U.S. Marine Corps and is a Vietnam War combat veteran. Apesanahkwat is widely recognized by his peers as a key architect of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA), which established the framework for Native Nations' participation in national gaming today.

He embodies the qualities of both a traditionalist and a progressive activist dedicated to the genuine empowerment and well-being of his people. A skilled orator on the political and social aspects of the Native American experience, he is also a motivational speaker advocating for language preservation, cultural heritage, native spirituality, education, and programs against gangs, smoking, drug, and alcohol abuse.

An accomplished actor, Apesanahkwat has appeared in films and starred in numerous television shows. He is also a champion northern traditional dancer, competing in powwows across the U.S. and Canada, and holds the title of 2nd degree Ogitchidaa (warrior) in the Three Fires Midawin (medicine lodge) society.
