Vera Beaudin Saeedpour
Vera Beaudin Saeedpour (pronounced sah-EED-por; March 27, 1930 – May 30, 2010) was an American researcher and scholar who specialized in the study of Kurdish people. She founded the Kurdish Heritage Foundation of America, the first library and museum in the United States dedicated to the subject. The foundation is located in the Prospect Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn in New York City.
==Early life==
Saeedpour was born Vera Marion Fine in Barre, Vermont on March 27, 1930, to Jewish immigrants from Russia. Her father sold scrap metal and rags for a living. She grew up in the only Jewish family in the town. At age 17, she eloped with Marcel Beaudin and moved to Brooklyn, where she worked at a bakery.〔 She later spent eight years working as an assistant to New York City real estate developer Seymour Durst.〔 The couple had four sons, Marc, Paul, Adam and Jeb, and one daughter, Rebecca.〔 Their marriage ended in divorce.
At age 40 she enrolled at the University of Vermont, where she earned a bachelor's degree in sociology and a master's degree in philosophy. After her divorce from Beaudin, she enrolled at Teachers College, Columbia University, where she earned a Ph.D. in 1976.〔
While at Columbia, she moved to an apartment in Harlem. When her home was robbed, she called out to a man in an apartment across the street to ask if he had witnessed the burglary.〔 That man, Homayoun Saeedpour, a 26-year-old Kurd from Sanandaj, later rang her doorbell and offered cake and flowers.〔 They married soon after.
