Autorenporträt

Most of his working life, M.P. Prabhakaran straddled two professions: journalism and teaching. He started his career in journalism, in 1969, as a cub reporter on Current, a weekly newspaper (now defunct) published from Bombay (now known as Mumbai). He then moved on, as a copy editor, to March of the Nation, another Bombay-based English weekly (also defunct now); and then to Free Press Journal, one of India's leading English dailies.After immigrating to the U.S. in 1975, he worked as the editor, first of The Voice of India, a monthly, and later, of South Asia Newsspecial, a news and feature syndicate.Side by side with his work in journalism, Prabhakaran also pursued a Ph.D. in Political Science, at The New School for Social Research, New York. After completing the Ph.D., in 1988, he taught for several years as an adjunct professor of political science, at the City University of New York.Since 2001, Prabhakaran has been traveling extensively and posting his travel experiences on The East-West Inquirer, an online monthly he started that year. The monthly, published at www.eastwestinquirer.com, also carries his social and political commentaries.
