Resumo

An eminent anthropologist, Professor Dilli Ram Dahal (10 March, 1946) was born in eastern Nepal. He was educated in Nepal, India, and the USA. He has contributed over 100 national and international journal articles and a dozen books. He has participated in several national and international seminars and conferences and supervised M.A., MPhil, and PhD theses. Prof. David Holmberg, an Anthropologist at Cornell University, had said, 'He (Prof. Dahal) speaks English like a flowing stream'. Though he has retired from his formal job, he is still an active reader, teacher, and writer. One never gets bored listening to him as he shares his field experience vividly. It motivates young anthropologists. He has served at the Center for Nepal and Asian Studies (CNAS), one of the research centers of Tribhuvan University. He never missed opportunities to educate young students at the Central Department of Sociology and Anthropology and the Central Department of Anthropology at Tribhuvan University in Kirtipur. He also worked at University of Michigan, USA. He has done fieldwork in different ecological regions (Mountain, Hill, and Tarai) and among different caste and ethnic groups (Rai, Tamang, Byanshi, Dhimal, Madhesi, Dalits, and Brahmin/Chhetris) of Nepal and the USA. We thank Prof. Dahal for sharing his life and some of his anthropological understanding with us without hesitation.
