Owen M. Lynch was an anthropologist and scholar with New York University who was noted for hispioneering work with the Dalits, or “Untouchables,” in India. He was born in 1931 in Flushing, New York.He earned his bachelor's degree from Fordham University (1956) and his Ph.D in anthropology fromColumbia University (1966).

In 1963, hebegan fieldwork among the Dalits in Agra. He worked with the Jatavs, many of whom were shoemakers.This fieldwork would evolve into his dissertation, and form the basis for his first book The Politics ofUntouchablility, published in 1969. He continued to study the Dalits and other marginalized peoples inIndia, including the Dharavi slums in Mumbai, Chaube Brahmans in Mathura, and the Radhavallabhi

Scope and Content Note

The papers of Owen M. Lynch document his research and field work in India, and in particular highlight hiswork among the Dalits in Agra. The collection consists of field notes, surveys, interviews, maps, drawings,manuscript notes and drafts, language materials, subject files, day planners, correspondence, universitypapers, conference symposium and panel materials, photographs, sound recordings, video recordings,and electronic records. The Munda Languages Project was Lynch's first fieldwork experience in India andfocused on the Nihali and Nahali languages. His subsequent research focused on the Dalits in Agra, theDharavi slums of Mumbai, the Chaube Brahmans in Mathura, and the Radhavallabhi sect in Brindaban.This research is represented well in his field notes, photographs, and sound recordings.

Lynch also kept extensive subject files on numerous Indian issues which contain significant material onthe Dalits, Indian economics and politics, and related researchers. There is a small amount of Lynch’suniversity papers from both his time as a student and as a professor. His student material includes readingnotes, his student papers, and dissertation proposal. His university papers are chiefly course and lecturenotes. The bulk of the photographs are from Lynch's fieldwork, primarily from Agra and Mumbai. Includedare photos of slums in Agra and Mumbai, shoemakers in Agra, weddings, ceremonies, conferences,and parades. There are also prints used in his first book The Politics of Untouchability. The presentationslides are thematically arranged sets of photographs, presumably used for course lectures or conferencepresentations.
