Iran is home to one of the largest Middle Eastern Jewish communities outside of Israel, numbering around 10,000 people today. Jewish Iran by Daniel Amir explores the 20th C history of Iranian Jews as they grappled with global political movements & Iranian national identity https://ow.ly/B52E50ZtB2W

Today is the US release date for my book 'Jewish Iran' with Stanford University Press. I'm excited to get it into readers' hands, library shelves, syllabi, and my grandma's coffee table. Get your copy here: www.sup.org/books/middle...

Author copies for my book Jewish Iran arrived this week! The book is officially available in the US at the end of July and in the UK in September @stanfordpress.bsky.social

I wrote an article about Persian-language radio in Israel in the 1950s and 1960s that's out open access with Iranian Studies! www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Pleased to report that the revised article contributes insignificantly to the literature, but makes significant headway in forging new pathways in radio-related wordplay. ✨Can I put this on TT job applications? Is this *service to the field*? ✨

Heartbreaking academic moments nobody tells you about: finding out all the good puns are taken for article titles on the area you research.

I have the privilege of sharing my research at Cornell next week. Do come along if you're in the area!
