SACHI, and CIIS are honored to present Andrew Ward, Essayist, novelist, scholar artist, and historian of British India, in an Illustrated Talk.
From 1968 to 1970, future historian Andrew Ward worked as a photographer in India. One of his assignments was to cover a year in the life of a North Indian village. He chose the little hamlet of Hushangabad, an hour’s drive southwest of New Delhi, and set out to document the village and its inhabitants.
Ward’s presentation, and accompanying video of his archive of village pictures, will be followed by a conversation with CIIS Professor Debashish Banerji.
