Amir's fascination with films arose at an early age, with a keen interest in movies that were banned in the post-revolutionary Iran and available only in secretive underground markets. This fascination later morphed into a broader interest in history and politics, subjects Amir studied at UCLA and NYU. Upon graduating, he worked as an interpreter, traveling widely throughout California. The thousands of cases he witnessed over the years provide fodder for the many stories he intends to bring to the screen, starting with Ghost Light.
Amir's writings have appeared in The Guardian, PBS, and Observer.
