Jim Luce Writes on Tibet & Tibetan-Americans

Jim Luce brings a unique perspective to writing about Tibet and Tibetan-Americans through his deep personal involvement in humanitarian work and direct access to key figures in the Tibetan community. As founder of Orphans International and collaborator with Dr. Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura in supporting the Manjushree Orphanage for Tibetan orphans in India’s sensitive border region with Chinese Tibet, Luce writes from firsthand experience rather than distant observation. His work spans cultural commentary, political analysis, and intimate portraits of Tibetan Buddhist life, offering readers insights gained through years of on-the-ground engagement and multiple audiences with His Holiness the Dalai Lama. From exploring the iconic Potala Palace’s place in popular culture to covering contemporary political developments affecting Tibetan succession and autonomy, Luce’s writing bridges the gap between Tibet’s ancient spiritual traditions and the modern challenges facing Tibetan communities worldwide.
