Zakya Daoud (by her real name Jacqueline Loghlam) is a well-known Moroccan journalist. She was born in 1937 in Bernay in France. She became a Moroccan citizen in 1959.[1] Zakya Daoud started her career as a journalist in 1958 for the Moroccan radio and then as correspondent in Morocco for the weekly Jeune Afrique. At the request of the African weekly, Jacqueline Loghlam signed her articles with the pseudonyme Zakya Daoud, a borrowed name under which she kept writing.[1]
In 1966, she became chief editor of Lamalif, a Moroccan magazine until it was stopped from publishing by the Moroccan authorities in 1988. From 1989 to 2001, Zakya Daoud contributed articles to several French journals like Maghreb-Machrek, Arabies and Le Monde diplomatique. Since that time she has published several books in the field of sociology and history.[1]
