Katherine Russell Rich is an American autobiographical writer from New York City. Her first book, The Red Devil: To Hell with Cancer, and Back, told of a clash of cultures occurring when the author's breast cancer treatment caused her to lose her hair just when both romantic and professional difficulties came to a head.

Her latest book, Dreaming in Hindi: Coming Awake in Another Language, details a year she spent in India on assignment for The New York Times. Having been sent there to interview the Dalai Lama's doctor, her assignment turned into a journey of linguistic awakening and of self-discovery. It was nominated for the 2011 Dolman Travel Book Award.

Quotes by Katherine Russell Rich (?)

“We have an oral tradition,” he says. “Therefore, much was put into poetry. Even books of astronomy and medicine. Poetry can be learned swiftly.” English, he observes, has a written tradition, and so “it is informative in nature. Its knowledge is encyclopedic.”
― Katherine Russell Rich, Dreaming In Hindi: Coming Awake in Another Language – An Eye-Opening Memoir on Linguistics, Brain Science, and Self-Discovery in India
