Do you watch 'Shahs of Sunset'? How do you think that show represents Iranian Americans?

I saw you in San Jose, so I do have your book and I look forward to reading it soon. My dad would try to haggle at department stores and I remember how much that would embarrass me!

Do you ever travel to Iran? I haven't been back since we left in '77, but I would like to go someday.

Thanks for representing Iranian Americans. I'm half Iranian and half German-American and grew up in an area with kids named Ryan, Chris, Jeff and John, like you and I just wanted to fit in during the early 80s. What were the details of the reason your family left Iran? How did you feel as you adapted from a child of Iran to a child in the US?

NOTE: I found out that making a flowchart of how to hijack a plane was not a good topic in computer class.
