On January 10, 2007, Kathleen Schmitt Kline interviewed Dave Grignon for the People of the Sturgeon: Wisconsin's Love Affair with an Ancient Fish project. Dave Grignon, whose Menominee name is Nahwahquaw, serves as the tribal historic preservation officer for the Menominee tribe. The interview begins with Grignon explaining the significance of the sturgeon in Menominee culture and history. The sturgeon is a clan symbol under the Bear clan and is integral to the Menominee creation story, symbolizing the keeper of the wild rice and tribal history.
