My Prison, My Home:  One Woman’s Story of Captivity in Iran

Haleh Esfandiari, an Iranian-American scholar, was arrested in Tehran in 2007 on false charges and incarcerated in the Evin Prison, the most notorious penitentiary in Ahmadinejad’s Iran. She will discuss her new book, My Prison, My Home: One Woman’s Story of Captivity in Iran. Esfandiari is director of the Middle East Program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.
