Summary
Journalist Elaine Sciolino and historian Jules Tygiel on this edition of Fresh Air. Sciolino covered Iran for some 20 years for Newsweek and The New York Times. Her new book Persian Mirrors: The Elusive Face of Iran was just released last month. It illustrates the culture of Iran: its press, its movie industry, its restaurants and homes. She speaks today on Iran's political position during the Middle East crisis. She is a senior writer at the Washington bureau for The New York Times. She lives in Washington, D.C. Tygiel gained recognition and critical acclaim for his first book on baseball history Baseball's Great Experiment: Jackie Robinson and His Legacy. Now in his newly released sequel Past Time: Baseball as History, he examines the relationship between baseball and American society over the past 150 years. He gives his thoughts on baseball history and this year's World Series. He is a Professor of History at San Francisco State University. (Broadcast Date: October 25, 2000)
