Naomi Shihab Nye is a poet and songwriter born in 1952 to a Palestinian
father, Aziz Shihab, who worked as a journalist, editor and writer, and
American mother, Miriam Allwardt Shihab, an artist who worked as a Montessori school teacher.[4]
Her father grew up in Palestine. He and his family became refugees in
1948, when the state of Israel was created. She has said her father
"seemed a little shell-shocked when I was a child."[5] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naomi_Shihab_Nye
