Stub; needs info on languages
editObviously a stub --- contains less information than the NPR biography which is itself a stub.
She "speaks Persian, Dari, and German in addition to her native English"
How about information on the circumstances leading to this outcome?
I recently heard on NPR that she grew up speaking German. Surely some information on that should be included in this article.

- She had an Iranian father and German mother, so that explains two of the languages, and she grew up in the US-- that explains the English. Dari is a simply a dialect of Persian, not a unique language. Ghost writer's cat (talk) 03:13, 24 January 2026 (UTC)

Update of current employment needed
editThe article claims she's working at KCRW Berlin to "present", but it also states that station was shuttered in 2020 (which is confirmed on the station's web site.) The station still exists, but not in Berlin apparently. Ghost writer's cat (talk) 03:15, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
Invalid source
editThe NPR source that was used in seven citations in the article no longer contains any useful information. That leaves a substantial amount of information unsourced. Ghost writer's cat (talk) 04:15, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
