Author Biography

Kahlil Gibran (6 January 1883- 10 April 1931) was a Lebanese-American writer, poet and a visual artist who was also considered a philosopher (although he himself rejected the title). Born in a village of the Ottoman-ruled Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate to a Maronite family, the young Gibran immigrated with his mother and siblings to the United States in 1895. He is best known as the author of The Prophet, which was first published in the United States in 1923 and has since become one of the best selling books of all time, having been translated into more than 100 languages.
