Yadav’s project, “The Performing Arts Ephemera Collection of Sunil Kothari,” will highlight the work of Indian dance historian Sunil Kothari with a curated digital exhibition. “This fellowship, in a short intense period, will give me a taste of an emerging and important field of digital humanities and its role in preserving the rich performative tradition of India,” Yadav told the American Institute of Indian Studies.

She is also currently working on her dissertation, which attempts to recover the voices of eighteenth-century women from Rajasthan who were writing about Radha-Krishna devotion.
