Few writers in Canada can boast a greater familiarity with Islamic Iran, and with the Islamic world, than author and journalist Fred A. Reed. He has visited the Islamic Repunlic 28 times since 1984, as a contributor to Montréal’s leading French-language newspapers, Le Devoir and La Presse. In 1990, CBC radio broadcast his three-part radio program on Iran after Khomeiny. He worked as head researcher for two Radio-Canada television documentaries on Iran, and, in 2001, has worked as associate researcher on Jean-Daniel Lafond’s feature-length documentary Salam Iran, and on an up-coming feature length documentary, also about Iran, to be released in the spring of 2006.
 
His first book, Persian Postcards: Iran after Khomeini, was published in 1994 by Vancouver-based independent Talonbooks. His second book, Salonica Terminus, also published by Talonbooks, appeared in 1996. It was followed in 1999 by Anatolia Junction, which focuses on the life and times of Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, one of the most significant figures in the Turkish Islamic movement. In 2000, he co-authored with Massoumeh Ebtekar, vice-president of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Takeover in Tehran—the Inside Story of the 1979 U.S. Embassy Capture.
 
Shattered Images, an exploration of modern Syria via the iconoclast movement, was published in 2004 by Talonbook. It is currently being translated into French, Turkish and Arabic.
 
Fred A. Reed has pursued a parallel career as a literary translator, from Modern Greek and French into English. From Greek he has translated works by Nikos Kazantzakis, Kostas Mourselas, Dido Soteriou, Yorgos Ioannou, Pavlos Matesis and Vangelis Raptopoulos. From French, Thierry Hentsch,Yves Beauchemin, Sergio Kokis, Martine Desjardins and Monique Proulx. He has three times won the Governor General’s Literary Award for translation, Canada’s highest distinction, most recently for his translation of Thierry Hentsch’s masterwork, Truth or Death, in 2005.
 
Fred A. Reed was born in California in 1939. He migrated to Canada in 1963 after living for three years in Greece. He now lives in Montréal.
