The image shows a document that appears to be an introduction and biographical note about the photographer Andrea Modica and her work titled "Real Indians".

The document is divided into two main sections.

The first section discusses Andrea Modica's project called "Real Indians". In 2002, she was commissioned by the American Indian College Fund to photograph people closely associated with 32 tribal colleges for Native Americans in 12 western states. This project was funded by a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. The aim of the project was to celebrate the diversity of Native American peoples and to challenge stereotypes and prejudices about their rich cultures. The photographs resulted from eight months of intensive travel across the United States. The subjects were documented in their environments, reflecting aspects of their personalities and culture. These photographs later became a core part of a book commissioned by the American Indian College Fund. Andrea expressed her gratitude towards the American Indian College Fund for access to the people she photographed.

The second section provides a brief biography of Andrea Modica. She lives in Manitou Springs, Colorado, and is a photographer. She received her MFA from the Yale School of Art in 1985 and taught in the Art Department at the State University of New York at Oneonta for 13 years. Her work is included in the permanent collections of several prominent museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. She has published four photographic monographs and has had her work exhibited extensively. She is represented by the Edwynn Houk Gallery in New York and the Catherine Edelman Gallery in Chicago. The biography lists several prestigious grants and awards that have supported her work.

The project was underwritten by a grant from the W. K. Kellogg Foundatio. The purpose was to celebrate the diversity of Native American peoples and to challenge assumptions and prejudices about these extraor dinarily rich cultures The photographs in this collection are the result of eight months of intensive work traveling around the United States, meeting the subjects, getting to know them and in some serendipitous way eliciting an aspect of their personality that informs not only the photograph, or some aspect of Native American culture, but also the culture of photogtaphy as well. Many of the loci, the settings, were places imbued with the presence of Native Atmerican peoples or special to families that had rooted there over generations. These photographs ultimately became the core of a book published at the behest of the American Indian College Fund that poignantly details the nuances of their culture.
