Steve Coll's new book The Bin Ladens: The Story of a Family and its Fortune charts the rise of a family, and the story of the Saudi royal family they loyally served.

He covered Afghanistan and the Washington Post's South Asia bureau chief between 1989 and 1992 and was the Washington Post's managing editor from 1998 to 2004. He is now staff writer at the New Yorker. He is the author of five books, including On the Grand Trunk Road and The Taking of Getty Oil. He lives with his wife and three children in Maryland.
