WASHINGTON - Jason Rezaian, who served as the Tehran bureau chief for The Washington Post, goes "On The Hill" as he talks with Tom Fitzgerald about his new book "Prisoner."

Jason's life took an unexpected turn when he was arrested by Iranian authorities and falsely accused of being an American spy for the CIA. After a sham closed-door trial, he spent 544 days in an Iranian prison, enduring solitary confinement. Jason talks about the high stakes diplomacy between the Obama Administration and Iran, and the extraordinary efforts to free him. He also shares stories of his friendship and work with the late Anthony Bourdain.
