Navajo artist, Raynard J. Taa’itsohii Scott, was born on September 3, 1965 in Los Angeles, California. He is of the kin Yaa’aanii (Towering House People) Clan, and born for the Dzil tl’ahnii (Mountain Recess People) Clan. He is the eldest of four boys and two girls. Although raised primarily in urban areas, it was important for Ray and his siblings to be taught traditional Dine (Navajo) values and beliefs.

Ray’s pieces have won many awards at several shows, including the Santa Fe Indian Market, the Heard Museum Guild Fair, Red Earth, Eight Northern Pueblos Show, and the Gallup Ceremonial. His work is also included in museums and private collections both nationally and internationally.
