| On Wednesday, September 7, 2005, Ninie met with the British Author Mary Bearwood in Washington, DC, after exchanging frequent e-mails between Washington, DC and London for several months. Bearwood, on Ninie's encouragement, had just attended the 42nd Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) Annual Convention in Rosemont, Illinois, where she displayed her book "The Children Encyclopaedia of Arabia" in the "Meet The Author" program. The encyclopedia is published by Stacey International. The encounter and the interview are as follows. |
