Zahra Noorbakhsh Biography

Zahra Noorbakhsh is a feminist Muslim, Iranian-American comedian, podcaster, and writer. She is renowned for co-hosting the #GoodMuslimBadMuslim podcast, which Oprah Magazine listed as a “must-listen" and the podcast was invited to the Obama White House to record an episode. A testament to her talents, Noorbakhsh participated as a featured comic at the first-ever Muslim Funny Fest in New York City.

As a testament to her versatility, Noorbakhsh's one-woman show "All Atheists Are Muslim: A Romantic Comedy" was a highlight of the New York International Fringe Festival. She is also a Sr. Fellow on comedy for social change with the Pop Culture Collaborative. Beyond her sold-out performances of her stand-up comedy special "On Behalf of All Muslims" at the Golden Thread Theater in San Francisco, she is a member of the San Francisco Writers' Grotto, where she continues to live and work.

Aside from her comedy work, Noorbakhsh is a respected writer. She penned a monthly column titled "My Infidel Husband" and contributed to the New York Times-featured anthology "Love Inshallah: The Secret Love Lives of American Muslim Women." Her writing has been featured not only in the NY Times but also on NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross.

Noorbakhsh is available in partnership with Collective Speakers.
