- Ishi died (1916) 13 years before Ursula K. Le Guin was born (1929).
- Neither Ursula or her mom had ever met Ishi. Theodora married Alfred in 1926. She decided to write the biography “Ishi in Two Worlds” for her husband who she said was too sad to do so himself.
- Ursula and Theodora began writing around the same time. Theodora had studied psychology and anthropology in school, but she did not start writing academically until her children were grown.
