I'm a few days late in posting this, but I wanted to mention my relief that my former FSN colleague Roxana Saberi, the Iranian-American journalist, has returned to the United States. Saberi spent about 100 days in Evin prison in Iran before being released following an appeal.
Immediately upon her arrival, there was good news for Roxana. A film co-scripted by her won a prize in one of the Cannes Film Festival competitions on Saturday.
Here is a link to that story.
