I’m deeply saddened to hear of the loss of Marjane Satrapi.
Marjane was a towering artist, a singular voice, and a steadfast advocate for the Iranian people. Beyond her remarkable achievements, I will remember a woman of extraordinary passion and heart.
We bonded over our shared love for Iran, our connection to Rasht, and a belief in the power of art to transcend politics.
When her beloved husband, Mattias, died last year, she spoke of a grief that had become a fire—one that grew larger, not smaller, with time. It was impossibles to read her words and not be moved by the depth of her love and loss.
The world knew her as the creator of Persepolis. I will remember her sharp wit, fearless candor, and unwavering love for our homeland.
Marjane leaves behind an extraordinary legacy—not only through her work, but through the authenticity with which she moved through the world.
Rest gently, dear Marjane.
