Littlefeather allegedly exaggerated her work on an acclaimed 1984 Michael Smuin production for the San Francisco Ballet and said she had a B.S. in holistic health and nutrition, which she did not.

In a three-hour oral history for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences museum, Littlefeather said she and a friend, Native American dancer Jasper Redrobe, were brought in as “dance consultants,” for the ballet. “The Native American consultant for the ballet was a dancer who was recommended by, and related to, Anna Halprin,” Tracy said, referring to Redrobe and Bay Area avante-garde dancer and choreographer Anna Halprin. “ was a tremendous help and taught the dancers traditional Native American dance steps which were included in the choreography.”
Over the years, Littlefeather said in different interviews that she grew up impoverished – even in a shack with no toilet – and as the daughter of an abusive, alcoholic Native American father and a White mother, both of whom were too mentally ill to care for her. Orlandi and Cruz say those claims are false and that their father was Mexican American and that no one in their family ever talked about having Native American ancestry.
