A. Ravi Shankar spent over three decades at the heart of Indian television news before transitioning from the front lines of journalism to the classroom as an educator and mentor. He has helped shape a generation of journalists, with a professional life defined by a commitment to asking difficult questions and resisting the comfort of simple answers.
While his career has unfolded in the public sphere of broadcast media, his deeper concerns have long taken shape in a quieter, more reflective space. Shadows of the Faultline marks his entry into fiction, drawing on these concerns to explore the intersection of scientific innovation, governance, and the ethical weight of power.
His work continues to examine the tensions between technological progress and human intent, as well as the search for balance within complex systems.
He is based in India.
