[Bio c. 2009]
Stephanie Spray is a doctoral candidate in social anthropology at Harvard University, where she works in the Sensory Ethnography Laboratory and the Film Study Center producing nonfiction video. She received her B.A. in the study of world religions at Smith College (2001) and a master’s degree at Harvard Divinity School (2004). She has been engaged in various fieldwork-based projects in Nepal since 1999. In 2001, she was the recipient of a Fulbright-IIE grant, which she used to begin an ethnomusicological project with the Gaine, a caste of itinerant musicians. Two such musicians were the subjects of an ethnographic digital video, Kale and Kale (2007), now distributed by Documentary Educational Resources. She has also made two videos in Nepal focusing on the experiences of Gaine women, Monsoon-Reflections (2008) and As Long As There’s Breath (2009). She is currently engaged in the post-production of two new projects based in Nepal: a hybrid sound piece entitled Blue Sky, White River, and another feature-length video with a family in Lekhnath, Nepal.
