Nasrin Sotoudeh was born in 1963 in a religious middle class family. She completed her studies in International Law in Shahid Beheshti University in early 90's. Nasrin Sotoudeh began her socio-political activism as the only female author in the "Daricheh Goftegoo" publication. This publication was run by a group of individuals with Nationalist-Religious (Melli-Mazhabi) leanings.
As her first work in the field of women's rights, Sotoudeh prepared a diverse collection of interviews, reports, and articles on the occasion of March 8th to be published in the special issue of Daricheh. The collection was rejected by the editor in chief of the publication; yet the rejection made Sotoudeh even more determined in her work for women's rights.
