Flagstaff, AZ – Host intro:

Betty Reid straddles two worlds: one modern, one traditional. She's a long-time reporter for the Arizona Republic in Phoenix, yet she was raised traditionally on the western edge of the Grand Canyon on the Navajo Nation. Reid writes about the tension between those two cultures in her new book "Navajo Women: Saanii." She told Arizona Public Radio's Daniel Kraker how she came up with the title.
