In 1978, Kaltham Jaber published her first book – a collection of short stories. She is an assistant professor and acclaimed writer from Qatar. Her success as an author came just two decades after girls were first allowed to go to school in the oil-rich state.
Kaltham became a really important figurehead for women in the country as she campaigned for gender equality.
She shares her story with Matt Pintus.
