Salloum Mokarzel
Salloum Antoun Mokarzel was an influential Lebanese American intellectual and publisher. He was the younger brother of Naoum Mokarzel who was the founder of Al-Hoda, one of the first Arabic language newspapers published in the United States. Mokarzel founded and published The Syrian World, a magazine that published articles on the history and culture of Syria. After The Syrian World ceased publication as a magazine in 1932, Salloum converts the publication to a weekly newspaper. After Naoum's death in 1932, Salloum takes over Al-Hoda.
