Dheera Sujan was born in India and grew up Australia and has lived in The Netherlands for most of her adult life. Her background has always been an important dimension her work and is more than a little responsible for her lifelong fascination with identity and multi - culturalism.

Dheera has worked for Radio Netherlands for 17 years. For the first 10 years she produced and hosted a weekly feature programme before finally settling down to work exclusively in the format she loves the most - the long documentary.

She has won two Silver Medals and a Gold at the New York International Radio Festival, a Prix Europa and a Gracie Allen award for best documentary.

She keeps trying to think of what she should do next, but her addiction to hearing about people's lives keeps her enslaved to radio. Along with her colleagues Michele Ernsting and David Swatling, Dheera currently produces Vox Humana for Radio Netherlands.
