Olya grew up in Iran under the severe persecution of the Iranian Islamic regime after the 1979 Revolution.  She along with 10 other women were arrested soon after, for being Baha'is.  All of her 10 women companions were eventually hanged and Olya believes she was spared so that she could share their story with the world.  One of these women was a 16 year old, named Mona, who was arrested for being a teacher at Baha'i children's classes.  She eventually escaped Iran and published Olya's Story:  href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/olyas-story-olya-roohizadegan/1136790370?ean=9781851680733" target="_blank"A Survivor's Dramatic Account of the Persecution of Baha'is in Revolutionary Iran.  Since the release of the book in 1993, exactly 10 years after the execution of her 10 women companions, she has presented herself in over 1000 public venues telling this story.  She wants to write a 2nd book demonstrating how the death of these women allowed her to spread their message of love and unity throughout the world.
