- Steven Naifeh is an Arab-American both by lineage (his grandparents were born in a part of Syria that is now Lebanon and Jordan) and by upbringing. As the son of diplomats, he spread his childhood throughout the Middle East — in Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Libya, and Oman as well as the U.A.E. He also lived in Pakistan and Nigeria. Naifeh, together with Gregory White Smith, has also written nine additional nonfiction books, including the New York Times bestsellers, The Mormon Murders (New York: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1988) and, with Phil Donahue, The Human Animal (New York: Simon & Schuster, 1985).
