Arab American contributions have enriched the political, economic and cultural landscape of American life. Arab Americans are inventors and innovators; they are doctors and engineers; they are entrepreneurs, scientists, politicians, activists and entertainers. They are immigrants, or children and grandchildren of immigrants, whose hard work, determination, creativity, and commitment made it possible for them to succeed in their professions. Their achievements are as multifaceted as the communities from which they have emerged. And for everyone who has become a leader in their field, there are thousands of others whose unacknowledged contributions continue to impact all of us.  Entertainment
