Dr Teejan Bai is a leading performing artist and a contemporary exponent of the traditional artistic form of Pandavani, a sung recitation based on the Mahabharata. Although she suffered doubly in Indian society from prejudice both as a woman, and for her tribal background, with her rare artistic gift and powerful determination, she has kept singing.

Her invaluable contribution to the dissemination of Indian cultural heritage will be remembered.
