Our Man in Tehran

lens.blogs.nytimes.com - Thomas Erdbrink, the Tehran bureau chief for The New York Times, has been reporting from Iran for more than a decade. In a video series begun on NYTimes.com last week, he gives a personal view of the country, where nothing is as it seems.

Mr. Erdbrink was born in the Netherlands and went to Iran in 2002. A year later he married Newsha Tavakolian, a well-known Iranian photographer who has been featured on Lens several times.

In a text that accompanies the video series he writes:

When I tell people that I have lived in Iran for 13 years, they’re often shocked.
