Russian-Eskimo pairings, as you can imagine, were common cultural mixes. His physical features got him roles in Arctic and South Pacific-based films. Born in Candle, AK, on the Kiwalik River south of Kotzebue. Died in Hollywood. Vote one of the top ten Alaskans by Time magazine.
Look up Candle on a Google sat map. It will give a good impression of his background.
Can you imagine the life he had?
