Stanley Triggs G.

Born in Kootenay Country in 1928, Stanley G. Triggers began his career as a trapper and Firefighter among other things. The experiences from these early years in his life were later used in his songwriting, while he briefly worked as a musician in the 1940s. He appeared at the Folk Song Circle in Vancouver, coffee houses in Ontario and Québec, and Sam Gesser's Le Feux Follets. He later became an archivist, historian and curator, and worked at the Notman Photographic Archives at the McCird Museum of Canadian History at McGill University from 1965 to 1994. He is the Father of Emily Triggs.
