description: "Mariam Behruzi (1945–2012) was an Iranian lawyer and former member of the Iranian Assembly. In 1980, she was one of four women elected to the first Assembly of the Islamic Republic of Iran, where she continued to serve until 1996. She worked to improve women's and family issues, successfully campaigning to have a committee on women's issues created within the Majlis. Behruzi also worked to have more women included in the judiciary, and her efforts resulted both in a reversal of a ban that prohibited women from studying law and a change in public opinion on women in law in Iran."
