Amiri started her journalistic career in 1971 (1350 in the Persian calendar), at a time when Iran was undergoing significant social and political changes. As a young journalist, she covered a wide range of topics, from politics to culture, and quickly gained a reputation for her insightful and thought-provoking writing.
One of Noshabeh Amiri’s most significant achievements as a journalist came when she became the first Iranian female journalist to interview Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the leader of the 1979 Revolution. This interview was a milestone in her career and cemented her place in Iranian journalistic history. Khomeini’s leadership and vision were shaping the future of Homeland, and Amiri’s ability to secure an interview with him was a testament to her skill and perseverance as a journalist.
