Marjane Satrapi was born in Iran. In 1994, she moved to France. In 2000 she published the first volume of Persepolis which tells the story of her youth in Iran in the 1970s and 80s, of living through the Islamic Revolution and the war with Iraq. Her other books include Embroideries and her latest adult book, Chicken with Plums. Satrapi is also the author of several children's books, including Monsters are Afraid of the Moon and Ajdar.
