See all formats and editions

Dancing in the family is the story of how Sukanya's grandmother, born Esther Sherman, in Petoskey, Michigan, transformed herself into Ragini Devi, classical Indian dancer, pioneer and writer of the first book in English on the dances of India.

It is the story of her mother's struggle to shake off the 'stigma' of becoming India's first Miss India in order to prove herself as a Bharatanatyam & Odissi artiste.

It is also the story of Sukanya's own struggle to stay afloat in this family of dynamic, indomitable women.
