Inside Iran with Azadeh Moaveni
Time magazine Middle East correspondent Azadeh Moaveni (Lipstick Jihad) is one of the most knowledgeable and unconventional Western reporters writing about Iran. After her move to Tehran in 2005 to cover President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's troublesome entry onto the world stage, she was forced to personally confront the country's fundamentalist turn as a woman and as a journalist. Moaveni brings to life a country that is at once immensely important to the West and deeply misunderstood.
