Yeret Nutyog

Jenenne Whitfield is the president of the critically acclaimed Heidelberg Project, www.heidelberg.org, in Detroit, MI. Her work with the Heidelberg Project and Tyree Guyton spans six continents, and together they have collected over 27 awards worldwide. For over 27 years, Jenenne has been Tyree's closest confidant. In the early days of their work, Jenenne often recorded conversations she had with Tyree about his childhood adventures. "As I listened to Tyree, I realized that there were many stories from which children can learn and enjoy. It is my hope that Yeret Nutyog is the first of many adventures to come." Tyree and Jenenne are married and live in Detroit.
