About Ajay Malghan Photography


After an inconspicuous childhood filled with soccer fields and moving every 4 years to wherever his father’s research took them, Ajay Malghan embarked on the 20’s of a lifetime.  Told on Valentine’s Day 2000 that he had ALL Leukemia at the ripe age of 20; a 10 year fight followed which involved enough drugs to kill a herd of elephants, a bone disease that linked him to Bo Jackson, 16 surgeries and three hip replacements.  During that time he picked up the guitar, drums and bass gluing them together with songwriting and his fascination with recording and manipulating sound.  After graduating from the University of Maryland in the winter of 2005, he left his job at the FDA purchased a Canon Rebel the summer of 2006 and embarked on one of several trips across the United States.  He loves the Simpsons, Miles Davis, his nephew Declan and is currently pursuing an MFA in Photography in Hong Kong.
