Description
-
Black-and-white photograph of the early India Currents editorial and production team, taken around 1987–1988, during the magazine’s formative years. This portrait captures some of the publication’s earliest contributors and staff members who helped build what would become the longest-running Indian American magazine on the West Coast.
This period marks the magazine’s transition from a small, volunteer-driven publication, beginning with an eight-page first issue in April 1987 to a rapidly growing community resource covering arts, culture, politics, and immigrant life. The image reflects both the grassroots origins and collaborative spirit that defined India Currents’ early editorial identity.
Photographs like this one provide rare documentation of the people behind the magazine’s founding: a multicultural team representing the diverse experiences, skills, and ambitions of South Asian immigrants in Silicon Valley at the end of the 1980s.
