1979
the
Ayatollah
Khomeini and Iran s
Islamic revolution shook the world. In the
wake of this cataclysm, hundreds of thousands
of Iranians immigrated to cities in the Middle
East, Asia, Europe, and North America. The
destination of by far the largest number of
these immigrants was Los Angeles, which
today claims the greatest concentration of
Iranian-born individuals in the West.
This innovative collection ot photographs,
essavs, and interviews explores the exodus from
Iran and the Iranian presence in Southern
California, capturing the remarkable diversity
of this immigrant community. The people
portrayed in these pages come from a broad
range of occupations and income levels, polit¬
ical persuasions, and religious faiths. They
include supporters of the deposed Pahlavi
regime and staunch followers or Khomeini, as
well as Muslims, Jews. Zoroastrians, and
Baha is.
We learn about the political conditions
that drove many of these men and women to
flee Iran and their determination to preserve
their culture while adapting to life in an
American city
—
a goal they have pursued in
films, television and radio programs, and
musical performances as well as: through
Islamic centers, churches, schools, and profes¬
sional organizations. We.meet successful entre¬
preneurs and professionals as well as individuals
who continue to struggle for economic subsis¬
tence; and we hear the voices of women
—
those from traditional families who continue
to veil themselves in public and those who
have adopted Western cultural practices. The
result is a mosaic of images and words,
embodying the diverse methods of visual soci¬
ology, fine art, and ethnography.
Kelley,
Friedlander,
and Colby have given
us a fascinating portrait of a community
caught between two cultures. Their distinctive
approach, integrating visual images with
interviews and scholarly analysis, offers a new
perspective on Iran and its people as well as
on immigrant communities in general.
RON KEL1.HY is a photographer and writer
who has worked extensively with Middle
Eastern immigrant communities as well as
with mainstream American subjects.
