Dina Temple-Raston is a Belgian-born American journalist and award-winning author.
She is the creator, host, and correspondent of the podcast "What Were You Thinking," which Entertainment Weekly named as one of the best new podcasts of 2018 Feb 23 issue, calling it "a provocative series which tells the stories of teenagers who've made the worst kinds of choices -- joining ISIS, planning a school shooting -- before analyzing the impulses behind them." In a review, the Washington Post wrote that it was "the podcast every parent needs to hear." Temple-Raston has been NPR's counter-terrorism correspondent since 2007 and is the author of four award-winning books of narrative non-fiction including A Death in Texas: A Story of Race, Murder and a Small Town's Struggle for Redemption, about the James Byrd murder in Jasper, Texas; and "The Jihad Next Door: Rough Justice in the Age of Terror," which looks at being Muslim in America post 9-11.
