Michael Obey

'Michael Obey' (qv) (pronounced "oh-be") was a Lakota/Cree from the Piapot First Nation in Saskatchewan, Canada. He first became interested in the film-making process at the age of nine after watching 'Chief Dan George' (qv) in _Little Big Man (1970)_ (qv); fortunately, Michael came into contact with veteran Hollywood actor 'Don Francks' (qv). Francks was responsible for instilling the basic fundamentals of acting in young Michael. After training in acting, Michael served a short stint in dinner theatre where he intended to develop exceptional timing in comedy. He received his opportunity of acting onscreen in the television drama series _North of 60 (1992)_ (qv).::Anonymous
