Nyla Ali Khan
Dr. Nyla Ali Khan is a Visiting Professor at the University of Oklahoma and former professor at the University of Nebraska-Kearney.〔(University of Oklahoma website )〕 She is the author of two books, including ''The Fiction of Nationality in an Era of Transnationalism'' and ''Islam, Women, and Violence in Kashmir: Between Indian and Pakistan,'' and several articles that focus heavily on the political issues and strife of her homeland, Jammu and Kashmir. Despite being the granddaughter of Sheikh Abdullah, Nyla Khan prefers not simply to live in his shadow but to "stand up for myself and be taken seriously ... express my anger without being labeled an 'Islamic militant' ... () legitimately question things I don't understand", as she stated in a 2010 interview related to the release of her second book.〔(Interview in Epilogue magazine )〕〔http://issuu.com/epilogue/docs/epilogue-november-2009 November 2009 Vol 3 Issue 12 p 38-41〕〔http://issuu.com/epilogue/docs/epilogue December 2009 Vol 3 Issue 12 p 27-30〕
==Biography==
Khan was born in New Delhi, India. Her family is based in Jammu and Kashmir, India and she was raised there in the Kashmir Valley located in the foothills of the Himalayas. Her mother, Suraiya Abdullah Ali, is a retired professor of literature, and her father, Mohammad Ali Matto, is a retired physician. She is the only child of Suraiya Abdullah Ali and Mohammad Ali Matto—and the granddaughter of Sheikh Abdullah. She did her Masters in Postcolonial Literature and Theory at the University of Oklahoma, Norman, and obtained her Ph. D. at the same institution.
In May 2015, Khan was the first Kashmir woman to be nominated and accepted as a member of the Advisory Council for the Oklahoma Commission on the Status of Women.〔http://www.normantranscript.com/news/business/business-spotlight/article_cfb913cf-ec2a-5001-92de-2910a64557f8.html〕 The Council serves "as a resource and clearinghouse for research and information on issues related to women and gender bias, to act as an advisory entity on equity issues to state agencies, communities, organizations and businesses of the state, and to establish recommendations for action to improve the quality of life for Oklahoma women, children and families."〔http://www.normantranscript.com/news/business/business-spotlight/article_cfb913cf-ec2a-5001-92de-2910a64557f8.html〕
