In ULTIMATE CITIZENS, Jamshid is an Iranian who came to study in 1970’s America, and due to the Revolution, never went “home.” As a guidance counselor in Seattle Public Schools, Jamshi best work takes place on the playing field with “his kids,” the children of refugees and
immigrants. Their parents are in the grips of their own struggles to make a living and a home in a strange land.
Mr. Jamshid is the charismatic, fiery, funny human with a Frisbee in hand who shows that love wins on the field, off the field, at home with family, or boldly forging community, in a new country – one kid, chicken, ultra-endurance race, and friend at a time.
