The interviews document the unique immigrant experience of Asian Indians in northeast Ohio and explore issues of professional, family, and religious life. The collection consists of seven oral history recordings, biographies of the interviewees, and release statements signed by the interviewees. | | | | Call #: | MS 5314 | | | | Extent: | 0.20 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | East Indian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Immigrants -- Ohio -- Cleveland.
