An Iranian-American explains the history and heritage of his people, in both the old world and the new. From Persia to Tehr Angeles is a fascinating look at everything from Persia's ancient past to the modern world of Persian-American immigrants in places like Los Angeles-offering a rich, rounded view a culture many are unfamiliar with. For those who are part of this history, their friends and families, or anyone interested in this corner of the world, it's an enlightening look at traditions, food, religion, and other aspects of this complex society over many generations.

Autorenporträt
In addition to being a transplanted Iranian himself-with a BA in business and marketing, a BS in business education, and an MA in business administration, all obtained in the United States-Kamran Sharareh has been teaching Persian cooking as "Chef KShar" for the past five years-two and a half of them online (www.kshar.net).Realizing that many young people of Persian descent know little of their own heritage, their partners know even less, and that no real solution existed, Kamran Sharareh decided to create it. His successful YouTube videos and DVDs on Persian cooking (generously laced with relationship advice) have garnered wildly enthusiastic comments and requests from his many viewers.
