Bio

Shilpa Raj, writer of her memoir ‘The Elephant Chaser’s Daughter’ makes one sit up and take notice. Fighting the accident of her birth, she opened the door wide to opportunities providing her with an education as no one else from her family could. The trajectory her life took since fate intervened at age 4, set her up to write her autobiography, giving a first-hand perspective of what it is to be a part of the social underclass in modern-day India.
