About
Sarah holds a B.A. in Classical Archaeology, an M.A. in Humanities and a PhD in Humanities and Cultural Studies. After finishing her M.A., Sarah taught for a Humanities and Philosophy department at a local college in California. While her M.A. thesis was on the missionary compulsion to write in the last quarter of the 19th century in India, her PhD research with the London Consortium was concerned with contemporary Bollywood cinema and the negotiation of interracial relationships and cultural citizenship in diasporic-centric films. Sarah’s other research interests are 18th and 19th century travel writing, the 1947 Partition of India, and most things related to popular culture and cinema.
