L.A.'s Persian Jewish Community Is More Than Just The Shahs Of Sunset-- For Better And For Worse
The biggest community of Iranian Jews in the world isn't in Tehran or Isfahan, not in Paris, London, Jerusalem, Tel-Aviv or Great Neck... It's in L.A., where nearly 50,000 "Persian" Jews live. (L.A., meaning Beverly Hills... and spill over.) After the Iranian Revolution, thousands of pro-Shah Jews-- many of them rich-- fled to the U.S., one of the wealthiest waves of immigrants to ever come to America. BRAVO!
