Marjane Satrapi died about 6 weeks ago. At 10, She fled Iran in 1980 as the Islamists came to power, spent her teen years in Europe, & returned to Iran in 1988 @ 18 years old. She's the author of the Graphic Novel Persepolis. She was as Punk as you can be, and risked her life to be so. RIP Marjane.
