BIOGRAPHY:

Mohamed Benfadil is a multilingual journalist, translator and  communications  professional.Born in the Amazigh small village of Taounza, at the very central part of the Atlas mountains, Mohamed Benfadil understood pretty early how precious it was to be polyglot. Growing in one of the most important Mellahs ( Jewish ghettos ) of the 50s and early 60s, He flirted with Hebrew before even starting his elementary education.  With his two- language background, at  age  6  , Mohamed Benfadil could then go ahead and learn  Arabic, French and  way later English.  Before  going  to College,  having always been greeted for his  multilingual fluency, He new communications and media would be "his" biz fields.When the Moroccan print press was at the crossroads in the early 90s, readers getting bored and frustrated with its one way and monotone political daily propaganda literature, Mohamed Benfadil along with other pioneers came to the rescue. The era of an independent press was definitely born.
After an exciting editorial experience at the first business weekly "La Vie Economique", He was offered to lead the first tabloid to specialize in Real Estate and urbanism issues, La Gazette de l'Urbanisme et de l'Immobilier. His contribution to improve the Moroccan publications quality was greatly appreciated. Especially at the political weekly Maroc-Hebdo, as his famous CEO's interviews brought a powerful audience of businessmen. His role as business editor in the unique and atypical Arabic-language weekly of the late 90s, Maghrib Al Yaoum, is also to take into account. Not to mention his star column "Le Manager" that boosted the economic readership of "Le Matin du Sahara". His trips around the world for his journalistic duties sharpened his communications skills.
He invests his spare time in the online reporting and web content in general.  
Mohamed Benfadil attended the Law school of  Hassan II University of Casablanca and the French Literature faculty of Nancy. He has been selected by the Center for International Media Education, CIME, of Georgia State University and the New York Times, through specific trainings, to apply the American journalism techniques  to the  Moroccan way of business writing.
He currently  lives in the Greater Washington, DC area, with his wife and four children.
