Jason Rezaian to Deliver the 2019 Benjamin C. Bradlee Distinguished Lecture in Journalism at St. Mary’s College of Maryland
In July of 2014, Jason Rezaian and his wife were detained in their Iranian home and he went on to spend 544 days in Tehran’s Evin prison, released on the same day that the historic nuclear deal between Iran and world powers was implemented. On Thursday, October 17 at 7:30 p.m., former U.S. correspondent Rezaian will deliver the Benjamin C. Bradlee Distinguished Lecture in Journalism on the topic of his book, “Prisoner” (Anthony Bourdain Books, 2019).
