Biography

Dinesh Joseph D'Souza (born April 25, 1961) is a political commentator and author. D'Souza is affiliated with a number of conservative organizations and publications, including the American Enterprise Institute, the Heritage Foundation, the Hoover Institution, and Policy Review. He also served as a policy advisor to President Ronald Reagan and, during 2010–2012, as president of The King's College, a small Christian school in New York City.

D'Souza is the author of several New York Times best-selling books, and has written the Christian apologetics What's So Great About Christianity and Life After Death: The Evidence. D'Souza is also a notable critic of New Atheism. In 2012, D'Souza released 2016: Obama's America, a film based on his 2010 book The Roots of Obama's Rage, both of which posit that Barack Obama's attitude toward America derives from his father's anti-colonialism and from a psychological desire to fulfill his father's dream of diminishing the power of Western imperial states. The film has been the highest grossing conservative political film produced in the United States. In January 2014, he was indicted on charges of making illegal political contributions to a 2012 US Senate campaign. Four Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee then sent a letter to FBI Director James Comey concerned that D'Souza might have been the victim of selective prosecution.
