Her article in support of Shapour Bakhtiar, the last Premier of Iran prior to the installation of the Islamic Republic and a loyal follower of Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh, published in daily newspaper Ayandegan was unique in its genre.
Later he volunteered for the French army and fought in the Orleans battalion and in the French Resistance against the occupation by Germany when living in Saint-Nicolas-du-Pélem.
