Marjane Satrapi, French-Iranian graphic novelist, passes away at 65. She is known for her graphic novel Persepolis and co-directed the animated film adaptation. Her work reflects her personal life growing up during the Iranian Revolution.

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don’t know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same.”
- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian author and artist
