It was a pleasure to attend a welcoming ceremony in Los Angeles two weekends ago, honoring Azarin Sadegh as one of the PEN Center USA’s Emerging Voices Fellows for 2011.  The PEN announcement introduced Azarin as: “Azarin Sadegh, a 2010 UCLA Kirkwood Award nominee, was born in Shahi.  During the war with Iraq, she left Iran, studied Computer Science in France and took her first Creative Writing class in Los Angeles.  Since 2007, her work has appeared in print and online, including in the Chicago Sun Times, Iranian.com and Common Boundary: Stories of Immigration.  Currently, she lives in Los Angeles and is working on her second novel, The Suicide Note.” Here are pictures Majid, Multiple Personality Disorder, and I took during our day of celebration of our friendship and Azarin’s award.
