Reporter Yusra Farzan brings the world to Los Angeles

from Roman on the Radio · host Nick Roman

Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, Dubai, Malaysia, back to Dubai - and then one more stamp on reporter Yusra Farzan's passport: Los Angeles to join LAist 89.3. She brought with her a global view of news, her Muslim identity - and at least 100 fashionable hijabs. We'll talk with Yusra about her life in four different Asian countries, choosing journalism over the career in science her parents preferred, and how she selects which of her many hijabs to wear - a collection she jokes is a "real problem."
