Naguib Mahfouz was born on the 11th Dec. 1911 in an old quarter ofCairo, the youngest son of a merchant. He studied philosophy at King Faud I (nowCairo) University, graduating in 1934. He worked in university administration and then in 1939 he worked for the Ministry of Islamic Affairs. He was later Head of the State Cinema Organization at the Ministry of Culture. He also worked as a journalist.
Although widely translated, his works are not available in most Middle Eastern countries because of his support of Sadat‘s Camp David initiative. In 1994 he survived an assassination attempt by Islamic extremists. He is married, has two daughters and lives inCairo.
