History and profile

[edit | edit source]

The Arab Observer was founded by Zain Nagati in 1960. At the time, it was one of the only English-language publications from the Middle East. Although not officially a state organ, it generally followed the political orthodoxy of the time[1] and supported the Nasser's government.[2][3]

Its most famous contributor was Maya Angelou, who worked as an editor while she was in Cairo.[4] Mahmoud Amr is the former editor-in-chief of the magazine.[5]
