| “From Sangli to New York: A Journey Across Cultures, Generations, and Continents” This deeply personal memoir chronicles the extraordinary journey of Suhas Ketkar, tracing his path from the tranquil town of Sangli on India’s Krishna River to the bright lights of New York City on the Hudson. Along the way, it explores pivotal themes of resilience, cultural identity, and the enduring ties of family across generations. Suhas’s story unfolds against the backdrop of historical events—from the riots following Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination to the Mexican debt crisis—blending personal recollections with the societal shifts that shaped his life. With vivid memories of his father’s sacrifices, his grandmother’s tough love, and his academic ascent at the Delhi School of Economics, the narrative captures moments of profound struggle and triumph. Through a 45-year career spanning academia and high-stakes finance, Suhas found success in settings as diverse as Sierra Leone, Vanderbilt University, and Wall Street. His sharp insights into economic crises and his leadership in investment banking exemplify a life of professional achievement grounded in the core values of fair play. At its heart, this memoir is a celebration of human connection and a tribute to the people, places, and principles that shape who we are. Engaging, thought-provoking, and deeply reflective, From Sangli to New York is a universal story of ambition, identity, and the pursuit of a meaningful legacy. |
