Radha Venuprasad

Born in Thiruvananthapuram, Radha Venuprasad did her schooling at the Holy Angels Convent and attended All Saints College. After her marriage to Venuprasad, the couple lived in various parts of India.

Always fond of visual art, Radha took to art restoration at the Madras Museum and trained at the National Museum in New Delhi to restore oil on canvas. She curated two successful art exhibitions where prominent South Indian contemporary artists were showcased. She is also a voracious reader and an avid traveller.

Dhobi Girl is Radha’s second work of fiction and first novel. Her first book was a collection of novellas, titled Shifting Sands.

The stories in Shifting Sands are about relationships — not only between men and women, but between families, extended families and even cultures. Radha explores frankly and with sensitivity life situations not commonly talked or written about.

Radha is widely travelled. She and her husband are now settled in Chennai. They have two sons.

These days, Radha best likes to describe herself as ‘grandmother to bubbly seven-year-old Tara.’
