Forest Haven is a Ts’msyen from Southeast Alaska with a lifelong interest in traditional subsistence food practices. Her academic foci intersect with settler colonial studies, anthropology of food and the senses, and Alaskan Native studies. She is specifically interested in how contemporary regulation of salmon and other subsistence food resources both articulates and obfuscates historically informed tensions between Alaskan Natives and the Alaskan state.
