m Name spelling correction: Correct is Amuzegar. Incorrect is Amouzegar. I worked for this man for 40 years. Jahangir Amuzegar spelled his name without an "o." At least one brother spelled the last name with an "o", but not Jahangir. This can be confirmed by clicking on any of the links at the bottom of the page. |
