Vancouver Sun: The co-founder of an animation studio in Vancouver has been named Canadian woman entrepreneur of the year at the sixth annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business last week in New York. Shabnam Rezaei co-founded Big Bad Boo Studios in Yaletown with her husband Aly Jetha after the two created the animated Babak and Friends, a direct-to-DVD story about an Iranian boy torn between his Iranian and American lives. That success spurred Iranian-born Rezaei and her husband to create Big Bad Boo and a series of 13 half-hour shows called Mixed Nutz. In that series, children from different backgrounds who end up at the same school in the United States learn how to be proud of who they are — and that they aren’t that different after all >>>

Check your facts!!!!!!
by Shireenjoon on Thu Nov 19, 2009 09:14 AM PSTCheck your facts!!!!!! Dustin Ellis is the brilliant creator of both Bobak and Friends as well as Mixed Nuts. It is revolting to think that anyone would so flagrantly misappropriate a fellow Iranians hard work. Shame on Iranian.com for not doing better research!!!!!!!!
Way to go SR!

Misinformation
by Dehaati on Thu Nov 19, 2009 12:56 AM PSTShabnam Rezaie may be an excellent entrepreneur and she may be creating cartoons now, but she and her husband Aly were NOT the creators of "Babak and Friends". Dustin Ellis created "Babak and Friends". Shabnam and Aly were its producers. There's a big difference between the two; one that perhaps only artists are sensitive to, but every artist deserves credit for his or her creation. The Vancouver Sun should have been more responsible with the facts.
Nice
