Professor Seema Khurana has been teaching Hindi language and literature for 15 years as a Senior Lector at Yale University.
She is actively creating teaching content for Hindi, such as “Partition Narrative Project”—a collection of recorded and edited filmed interviews of Partition survivors in Hindi; “Hindi in Diaspora” – a collection of written works and audio/video clips – from news broadcasts, interviews, soap operas, readings and Hindi cinema depicting Hindi in Diaspora that serve as a growing database to understand issues of assimilation and identity. In 2000, she produced the first Hindi-book-on audiotape in the U.S., Amrita Pritam’s “Pinjar.” Her short stories and poems have been published in various Hindi-language magazines and anthologies.
