“A throne of 2,500 years, a party that shocked the world, and a life redefined by exile.” Iranian Empress
Farah Diba’s life reads like a modern epic—a whirlwind journey from the cultured streets of Paris to the opulent halls of Tehran. As the first woman to be crowned Empress in over two millennia, she became a global icon of modernity, art, and Persian grandeur.
But behind the shimmering tiaras and the legendary 2,500-year celebration at Persepolis—attended by the likes of Princess Grace, Jackie Kennedy, and Elizabeth Taylor—lay a nation on the brink of a historic collapse.
Join Mythic Women as we explore the resilience of Farah Pahlavi. From her tireless work for women’s education and her creation of the world’s most valuable modern art collection to the heartbreak of the 1979 Revolution and the tragic losses of her children in exile, this is the definitive story of a woman who balanced the weight of an empire with the grace of a survivor.
