Autorenporträt
Massoud Hayoun is an award-winning author and journalist from Los Angeles. In 2019 his debut When We Were Arabs was published by New Press to critical claim. Part-memoir, part political exploration, it retells the story of his grandparents' emigration through Egypt, Tunisia, Palestine and America, uncovering what Arabness meant then and what it means today. It won the Arab American Book Award and was the U.S. National Public Radio book of the year. As a journalist Massoud has reported on international affairs in several languages for Al Jazeera, CNN and Agence France-Presse.
