Early life

Malley was born in 1963 to Barbara (née Silverstein) Malley, a New Yorker who worked for the United Nations delegation of the Algerian National Liberation Front (FLN), and her husband, Simon Malley (1923–2006), an Egyptian Jewish journalist[12] who worked as a foreign correspondent for the Egyptian newspaper Al Gomhuria.[13] He reported on international affairs, particularly nationalist, anti-imperial movements in Africa, putting the FLN on the world map.[14]

In 1969, the Malley family moved to France, where Simon Malley founded the magazine Africasia (later known as Afrique Asia). Robert attended École Jeannine Manuel, a bilingual school in Paris, and graduated in 1980 in the same class as future U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken.[15] The Malleys remained in France until 1980, when then French president Valéry Giscard d'Estaing had Simon Malley expelled due to his hostility towards French policies in Africa.[16]
