—Natalie Cole, Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and performer

—Terry Semel, former chairman and CEO, Yahoo!; former chairman and CEO, Warner Bros.

“Sonia Cole recounts the making of her film The Black Tulip, the first feature film ever made by a woman in war zone Afghanistan and one of the first films made in Afghanistan since the fall of the Taliban. It’s a dramatic story she tells with great passion.”
—Peter L. Bergen, author, Manhunt: The Ten-Year Search for Bin Laden, from 9/11 to Abbottabad

—Roger Birnbaum, co-chairman and CEO, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Inc.

“A gripping eyewitness account of today’s Afghanistan killing fields.… A firsthand narrative of a harrowing adventure within a death-defying experience amid the flames and fanaticism of the Taliban war.”

“At great risk, we told a story about the real-life terrors of living inside the war in Afghanistan while enduring those actual fears and dangers ourselves.”

—Farid Younos, author, university lecturer, women’s rights activist, and Afghan-American television personality
