Nazanin Boniadi has been dubbed the "Persian Audrey Hepburn" by Hollywood insiders.
Perhaps it is her elegance and poise combined with a lightness of spirit that has earned her
such a title. "It is an honor to be likened to my all-time favorite actress. She is a legend and her
work will inspire generations of actors to come" Nazanin has responded.
Nazanin was born in Tehran, Iran. Her parents moved to London shortly after, where she was
raised with an emphasis on morality, integrity and education.
Fluent in both Farsi and English, Nazanin graduated top of her class from a prestigious private
high school in London, England. She went on to earn a Bachelor's Degree, with Honors, in
Biological Sciences from the University of California Irvine.
Adept at multi-tasking, Nazanin never lost focus of helping her community while growing
intellectually. Her molecular research into finding a cure for cancer and heart transplant rejection
won her the competitive Chang Pin-Chun Undergraduate Research Award. Nazanin
demonstrated her leadership abilities as Assistant Editor-in-Chief of MedTimes, UCI's
undergradute medical newspaper, and as Head Coordinator of the Biology of Cancer class on
campus. Nazanin is also a published writer in the filed of human and civil rights.
However, Nazanin's abilities do not merely stop here. She is skilled at ice skating, certified in
CPR and excellent at playing piano.
