Biography
|
|
|
Tsering Wangmo is a second-generation exile Tibetan and was born in a refugee camp in southern India. Educated in a local Tibetan school, she studied traditional Tibetan music, dance and opera for seven years from 1982 to 1989 in the Tibetan Institute of Performing Arts in Dharamsala in northern India. The institute was set up by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, shortly after China's occupation of Tibet in 1959, to facilitate the preservation of Tibet's unique cultural heritage in exile.
Tsering has performed throughout the world in Europe and Asia beside the United States and throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. She has performed at the Lincoln Center in New York, the Warner Theater, Berkeley Greek Theater, and the Marin Civic Center, among others.
In Spring 2003 Tsering she performed at Carnegie Hall in the 13th Anual Benefit concert for Tibet House, sharing the stage with Philip Glass, Laurie Anderson, The Kinks' Ray Davies, David Bowie, Lou Reed, Ziggy Marley and Angelique Kidjo.
In April 1989, Tsering came with Sonam Tashi and Tashi Dhondup on a performance tour of nine different American cities. Two years later, the three of them founded Chaksam-Pa, a San Francisco-based non-profit organization dedicated to preserving traditional Tibetan performing arts.
In 1995, Tsering opened a Tibetan restaurant, Lhasa Moon www.lhasamoon.com, the first and only one of its kind in San Francisco. She also wrote a Tibetan cook book, Lhasa Moon Cook Book, and was the recipient of the prestigious Chef's 2000 Award and the Gold Medal Chef Award in 2001, conferred by the National American Tasting Institute.
In 1999, Tsering founded the Tibetan Cultural Preservation Project through The Cultural Conservancy (www.nativeland.org), a non-profit cultural organization based in San Francisco. Through this project Tsering has organized and hosted dozens of cultural programs including a sand mandala ceremony by Tibetan Buddhist nuns and a Tibetan New Year (Losar) celebration with Tibetan elders from southern India.
Tsering is currently running the restaurant, performing locally, and working on the Tibetan Cultural Preservation Project. |
