About the Author

Satyajit Ray was born in 2 May 1921 in Calcutta. After graduating from Presidency College, Calcutta, in 1940, he studied art at Rabindranath Tagore's university, Shantiniketan. By 1943, Ray was back in Calcutta and had joined an advertising firm as a visualizer. He also started designing covers and illustrating books. A deep interest in films led to his establishing the Calcutta Film Society in 1947. In 1955, after overcoming innumerable difficulties, Ray completed his first film, Pather Panchali. The film was an award-winner at the Cannes Film Festival and established Ray as a director of international Stature.
