George Catlin (July 26, 1796 – December 23, 1872) was an earlier American painter, author and traveler who specialized in portraits of Native Americans in the Old West. He worried that the vast herds of buffalo and the Indians who depended on them would someday be gone forever and he called for the creation of a nation's park to save them. But, no one listened.
