Thus is our friend Sharon Lowen. I met Sharon at a puppetry festival back in the late 1970’s.
Many of us think of ourselves as living legends… Sharon actually is one. A Jewish girl from Detroit who traveled the world in her youth and accepted a Fulbright to study Dance in India. Then she spent the last 30-40 years becoming one of the most respected Indian dancers and teachers in India – embracing and celebrating their culture, starting as an outsider in every aspect and evolving into a major force that keeps this art form alive (I did mention she’s a Jewish girl from Detroit, didn’t I?)
Sharon lives an amazing life and after all these years it was a dream to visit her in her magical world and take advantage of her generous hospitality.
