India Portfolio

In December 1977, I received a telegram from two friends traveling in India: “Meet us in Bombay in ten days.” As a vegetarian and student of yoga, I jumped at the opportunity, hitched a ride across the country, and flew to Bombay. Carrying 140 rolls of film and a little Leica camera, I spent five months photographing while riding second class trains and traversing India on three dollars a day.
