In December of 1961, twenty-year-old Krishan Bedi landed at a port in New York armed with only $300 in his pocket and a resolve to study engineering in the United States. What transpires then is a story of one man’s perseverance and determination to create the life he had always dreamed for himself as a little boy in India—a place where his options seemed anything but limitless
Krishan K. Bedi
Krishan Bedi arrived in the US by boat with only $300 in his pocket in December 1961. A twenty-year-old from the tiny village of Punjab, India, he had big dreams and ideas of what he wanted to do with his life. He eventually earned a master’s degree in industrial engineering at the University of Tennessee. After nine years in the US, he returned to India to have an arranged marriage; together, he and his wife again left for the States, where Bedi developed a career as a healthcare executive. He’s since served as member of several healthcare professional organizations, and is currently a member of the board of Indo-American Society of Peoria. Bedi is a contributing author to The Magic of Memoir, edited by Linda Joy Myers and Brooke Warner.
