Discussion with author Lee Smith

Lee Smith is a veteran journalist whose work appears in Real Clear Investigations, the Federalist, and Tablet.

He’s worked in media for thirty years, writing about national politics, foreign policy, and the press. Smith reported from the Middle East for a decade after the 9/11 attacks and wrote the critically acclaimed The Strong Horse: Power, Politics, and the Clash of Arab Civilizations.

He is a Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute, Smith is a frequent guest on television and radio, national and international, including Fox News, CNN, and France 24. Smith was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico and was raised in New York City. He now lives in Washington, DC.

He also wrote this great article that has everything I like. Thucydides, historical look backs and present day mayhem: The Thirty Tyrants
