Michael Soussan is a whistleblower, LA-based screenwriter, producer, public speaker, journalist, author of Backstabbing for Beginners: My Crash Course In international Diplomacy, and founder of The Brown Journal of World Affairs at Brown University.

The book has since been made into a feature film by the same name Backstabbing for Beginners starring Ben Kingsley and Theo James, and directed by Per Fly Plejdrup. The movie is currently available on Amazon Prime.
