<TD width="99%">Dr. Dahlia Wasfi was born in New York, New York in 1971 to
an Iraqi father and a Jewish mother. She spent her early childhood in
Saddam Hussein’s Iraq until she returned with her family to the United
States in 1977. Dr. Wasfi graduated from Swarthmore College in 1993 with a
B.A. in Biology, and from the University of Pennsylvania School of
Medicine in 1997. Her latest trip to Iraq was a 3-month stay during the
spring of 2006, when she traveled to see her family in Basrah. She has put
her medical career on hold to share her experiences in Iraq, with emphasis
on current medical conditions. She has testified at the Iraq Forum held by
Congress in 2006 and is a highly regarded
scholar.</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></DIV></DIV></DIV>
