Sohrab Shahid-Saless

biography:
Sohrab Shahid-Saless was born in Tehran in 1944 to a middle-class family and lived in Tehran. Shahid-Saless was a storyteller as a child, with a passion for  visualizing his narrations. In 1963,  Shahid-Saless left Iran for Vienna, where he attended a film school and  an acting school at the same time, but his studies were discontinued  there in 1967 due to a sudden diagnosis of tuberculosis. In the midst of  treatment, he left for Paris to continue his film studies at the  prestigious Independent Conservatory of French Cinema, and shortly  thereafter, in 1968, he returned to Iran. Upon his return to Tehran,  Shahid-Saless began work with the Iranian Ministry of Culture as a  documentary filmmaker, where he produced multiple short films and  documentaries, partly on the topic of traditional dance amongst  different Iranian ethnic groups. In the course of his stay in Iran (1968–74), he produced two major  feature films, Yek ettefāq-e sāda (A Simple Event, 1973) and Ṭabiʿat-e  bijān (Still Life, 1974), both of which won major international awards  for their social realist depiction of life in Iran and for their  innovative cinematographic and experimental style. Shahid-Saless also made several short films for the Ministry of Culture  and Arts. He made many commissioned films on the local folkloric dances  of various ethnic groups. He also started making short documentaries  depicting the unnerving condition of life among the working class.  Unsurprisingly, the political subversive message of these films was  disliked by the government, and Shahid-Saless was forced to leave the  country. Settled in Germany in 1974, Shahid-Saless started producing  documentaries for the German media. The movies he made gained him  further international recognition, and he continued making documentary  and feature films for major German television programs. He made his last movie, Rosen für Afrika, in 1991 for German television. In 1992, he left Germany for the United States to join his family. He died from a chronic illness related to his liver from which he suffered throughout his life.

Shahid-Saless is known to be a pioneer of the new wave of Iranian  cinema. In his own words, his cinema intends to document the “antagonism  between man and society”. In the course of his  oeuvre, he viewed the role of cinema as “to make conscious of indignity  and inhumanity of life".

In the late 1960s, Case went into business manufacturing fur coats for men. Furs used in the coats included wolf, Norwegian seal, muskrat, and sheared rabbit. Prices ranged from $350 to $1,250.  During his theatrical career, Case designed his own clothes, and as the menswear market changed, he thought the time was ripe to express his own ideas and designs.

On September 22, 1961, Case married Bobbie Jones. They had a daughter, and they divorced on June 27, 1979.

While on vacation, he died after suffering a heart attack in Truckee, California, at the age of 51.  CLR

Jordan B. Peterson

biography:
Jordan Bernt Peterson (born 12 June 1962) is a Canadian psychologist, author, and media commentator. He received widespread attention in the late 2010s for his views on cultural and political issues. Often described as conservative, Peterson self-identifies as a classical liberal and traditionalist.

Born and raised in Alberta, he graduated from the University of Alberta with undergraduate degrees in political science and psychology and earned his PhD in clinical psychology from McGill University. After researching and teaching at Harvard University, he returned to Canada in 1998 and became a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto. In 1999, he published his first book, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief, which became the basis for many of his subsequent lectures. The book combined psychology, mythology, religion, literature, philosophy and neuroscience to analyze systems of belief and meaning.

In 2016, Peterson released a series of videos on YouTube criticizing a proposed federal law, Bill C-16, that would prohibit discrimination against gender identity and expression. Peterson argued that the bill would make the use of certain gender pronouns compelled speech, and related this argument to a general critique of "political correctness" and identity politics, receiving significant media coverage and attracting both support and criticism. The bill became law in 2017. Peterson has been widely criticized by climate scientists for denying the scientific consensus on climate change and giving a platform to climate-change deniers.

In 2018, he paused both his clinical practice and teaching duties and published his second book, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos. Promoted with a world tour, it became a bestseller in several countries. In 2019 and 2020, Peterson suffered health issues related to benzodiazepine dependence. In 2021, he published his third book, Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life, resigned from the University of Toronto, and returned to podcasting. In 2022, Peterson became chancellor of the newly launched Ralston College, a private, unaccredited, liberal arts college in Savannah, Georgia, United States. In 2025, Peterson suffered chronic inflammatory response syndrome, causing his hospitalization for five months. Affected by health problems since attaining prominence, Peterson has been under assisted care at his residence and remained out of public life since June 2025. His various lectures and conversations, available mainly on YouTube and podcasts, have garnered millions of views.
