Sacagawea is best known for her association with the Lewis and Clark Expedition (–06). A Shoshone woman, she accompanied the expedition as an interpreter and traveled with them for thousands of miles from St Louis, Missouri, to the Pacific Northwest. The belief that Sacagawea lived to old age and died in Wyoming was widely disseminated in the United States through Sacajawea (), a biography written by Grace Raymond Hebard, based on her 30 years of research.
