The Iranian American community consists of individuals of Iranian descent living in the United States. This community has grown significantly since the 1979 Iranian Revolution, with many seeking refuge from political unrest and economic challenges in Iran. Today, Iranian Americans contribute to various fields, including business, academia, and the arts. Culturally, the Iranian American community maintains strong ties to their heritage through celebrations of traditional holidays like Nowruz and the preservation of the Persian language. Many community organizations promote cultural exchange and support for newcomers, fostering a sense of belonging and identity among Iranian Americans.
