About
Why this artist matters now
René Ménard was a French Jesuit missionary explorer who traveled to New France in 1641, learned the language of the Wendat, and was soon in charge of many of the satellite missions around Sainte-Marie among the Hurons. Ménard also worked with the Iroquois, and was said to speak six Indian dialects. He survived the continuous attacks from the Iroquois on the Huron and disappeared in 1661.
