_ -r Om__ H__1_L L _ For about 14 .years, Tom }lill worked in the highest -government bureaucracy circles. He was earning a "healthy" salary and knew he could easily "rest and be comforta- ble." Instead, he left Toronto and Ottawa to become the museum di- rector at the Woodland Indian Cul- tural Educational Centre in Brant- ford. . To those who wonder why, he says simply: "I decided that what_ I wanted to do with museums I hadn't done." Between· 1968 and 1978, Mr. Hill was director of cultural development with the Ministry of Indian and Northern Affairs in Ottawa. He worked closely with Jean Chretien, the minister during much of that time. Mr. Hill went on to become a na- tive policy advisor in the Toronto district and Ontario regional offices of the Secretary of State. . Raised in Oshweken, he studied at the Ontario College of Art in To- ronto and in 1967, won a scholarship to the National Gallery of Canada. He also worked at the National Gal- lery in· 1968.
