Deghani was born in Azarbaijan province in 1949. In 1971, at age 22 Ashraf Dehghani (then a member of the Organization of Iranian People's Fedai Guerrillas (OIPFG) cadre) was arrested, imprisoned, and tortured for her political beliefs under the rule of the Shah of Iran, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi. Her memoirs, entitled Torture and Resistance in Iran, document the events before and during her imprisonment. The memoirs provide not only a detailed personal account of Ashraf Dehghani's inner struggles while in prison, but also a description of the broader political struggles and objective conditions required for any revolutionary party to survive outside and inside of prison.
