Buffalo, NY – New Seneca Nation President Robert Odawi Porter is a lawyer by training. The Harvard Law school graduate has more than 20 years of experience working for law firms and for Indian tribes all over the country.

But Odawi Porter said he is first and foremost a Seneca.  And he has wasted no time since being elected in November putting the full force of his legal expertise to work for the Nation.

WBFO's Joyce Kryszak sat down with President Odawi Porter in the WBFO studios recently for a candid conversation.  Odawi Porter said he is determined to move the Nation forward.
