Her father was a well-respected physician and her mother a homemaker. She grew up in a westernized household that adored the Shah of Iran and his ideologies. Neshat has stated about her father, \u201cHe fantasized about the west, romanticized the west, and slowly rejected all of his own values; both my parents did. What happened, I think, was that their identity slowly dissolved, they exchanged it for comfort. It served their class\u201d (Mackenzie 3). As a part of Neshat\u2019s \u201cWesternization\u201d she was enrolled in a Catholic boarding school in Tehran. She found the environment cold and hostile in comparison to her caring family.<\/p>\n<p>Through her father\u2019s acceptance of Western ideologies came an acceptance of a form of western feminism. Neshat\u2019s father encouraged his daughters to \u201cbe an individual, to take risks, to learn, to see the world\u201d (MacDonald 3), and he sent his daughters as well as his sons to college to receive their higher education<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Background Neshat&#8217;s parents were upper middle-class.
