Kim Stacey
Freelance Writer
 

Golestan-Parast Productions strives for excellence, and that necessitates hiring support staff members who are committed to this same level of professional quality. "In bringing Kim into the firm, we have engaged a writer who is familiar with Iranian culture; not only familiar, but deeply connected to it," shared Jahangir. "She is also very determined to change perceptions, and bring about peaceful relations between the U.S. and Iran."

Kim has a unique perspective. "I was only 12 years old when my father and mother moved our small family to Tehran, way back in 1966. The ensuing 6 years changed my life, and I am forever appreciative of the diversity of experiences I had while living there".

 

"In working side-by-side with Jahangir, I've been given a valuable opportunity to do some of my best work. I'm able to embrace what I learned while living there; to reflect on the depth of history, cultural character, and spiritual connection which make this nation so valuable to the wider global community".

 

"I am honored to have this chance to reach for my own past, and clarify for the entire world, the essential beauty that is Iran".

LAGUNA HILLS Jahangir Golestan-Parast still remembers how decades ago on a couple of occasions his principal shone the flashlight inside a dark movie theater and hauled him and his friends back to school.

The boys had skipped math classes in their native Isfahan, Iran, and snuck away to the local cinema, which showed classic American films with heroes like John Wayne and Charles Bronson, dubbed in Farsi.
