Kala Singh Memorial Scholarship

Kala Singh was an audiologist and a special person who dedicated her life to helping others so they could achieve their communication goals. She was a pioneer publisher of speech-language and hearing publications and co-founded College-Hill Press, Inc., with her husband Dr. Sadanand Singh, founder of Singular Publishing Group (now part of Delmar Thomson Learning) and of ContentScan. The Singhs co-authored the well-known audiology textbook, Phonetics. On September 5, 1986, while returning from visiting family in India, Ms. Singh was killed during an attempted hijacking of a Pan Am jetliner in Karachi, Pakistan. She was only 36 years old. The Kala Singh Memorial Scholarship was established by the ASHFoundation and Little, Brown, Inc., in collaboration with Dr. Singh to honor her contributions to the advancement of knowledge in the field of communicative disorders and sciences.
