Edna Lee Paisano (January 1, 1948—September 3, 2014[1]) was a Nez Perce and Laguna Pueblo demographer and statistician.[2] She worked to improve the representation of Indigenous communities in the United States census. She advocated using statistics and computer programming to accurately represent the demography of the United States, arguing that without accurate counts of minority populations they would not receive proportional resources. Paisano put this into practice as the first Native American fulltime employee of the United States Census Bureau. She has been credited with substantially increasing the accuracy of the American Indian and Alaska Native census category between the 1980 census and the 1990 census.
