Cheyenne (is adopted)

One of four first cousins named after places in the American West because their mothers (four sisters from a large New England family) all dreamed of hunky cowboys.  Unlike her mother, Cheyenne dreamed of tepees and riding horses bareback.  Following her college graduation from Harvard, she packed up and went west to apply her doctorate in urban planning to the challenges of modernizing Native American reservations.  As an adopted member of several tribes, she regularly grabs her peace-keeping spear for a war dance or two.
