American Indian Studies Lecturer Faculty Paul Steward recently received four Certificates of Recognition: from San Francisco Sup. Stephen Sherrill, California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, State Sen. Scott Weiner and U.S. Rep. Kevin Mullin.
The certificates praise Steward’s outstanding achievements as a musical artist, educator and cultural advocate. They highlighted his work in preserving his Elem Pomo cultural music and for his commitment to artistic excellence and education. They thanked him for his contributions to the arts, education and the community.
Steward said he is humbled and thankful for the recognition and promises “to carry on in his works to educate, to preserve, to make music and to bring joy.”
On Friday, Oct. 16, Steward will perform a special concert at Biscuits and Blues in San Francisco celebrating the music of Joe Louis Walker. Walker was a San Francisco Fillmore District-born and raised bluesman who rose to prominence with his 1986 album “Cold Is the Night.”
