Yes it is, and I have long admired Christiane Amanpour.

She lost me when her favorite painting she has was posted on the NYT website. It appears to be the WTC on fire.

12. Favorite Item in the Apartment: A massive painting that I got in Iran, a few years ago, by Farideh Lashai, a friend who is also Iran’s pre-eminent abstract-expressionist painter. It gives me joy every time I walk in my door.
