Kamala Dongerkery

Kamala Sunderrao Kulkarni Dongerkery (1909–1992) was an Indian social worker, art historian, author, and cultural historian. She wrote books on Indian embroidery, Indian jewelry and Indian toys. She also wrote an autobiographical account of her life, On the wings of time (1968).[1]

Biography

Kamala Dongerkery was originally from Dharwar. She was married at the age of eleven,[2] to the educationist S. R. Dongerkery (born 1898), later Vice Chancellor of Marathwada University. In her autobiography she recounted how she faced criticism from her mother-in-law for failing to produce a male child.[3]

Inspired by Kamaladevi Chattopadhyaya, she began writing on the history of Indian clothing, as well as of other traditional arts and crafts. She was part of a revival of interest in Indian craft, motivated by aesthetic appreciation of its distinctiveness rather than as a Gandhian political statement.[4]

She was a member of the All India Women's Conference and the National Council of Women. She was also a founder and chair of Balak Vrina Education Society, and on the Board of Film Censors.[1]
