After the 1979 Revolution, Ashraf Pahlavi—like most of the Pahlavi family—fled the country under threat of imprisonment or execution by the new Islamic regime. She settled in New York City for much of her later life, keeping a low profile in public but remaining deeply involved in Pahlavi exile politics. In exile, she wrote memoirs and gave interviews defending the monarchy, often framing the revolution as a betrayal of progress. Her 1995 memoir, Faces in a Mirror: Memoirs from Exile, offers personal insight into her worldview and reflections on the monarchy’s downfall.
