Lol, who has an 'American' name? Except for some First Nations/Native Americans. The name Nouri is Arabic.

Yep, he's Arabic (just like Maliki al-Nouri), though not to start anything, but he doesn't have the "Arab" look (honestly, I thought Nouri was Greek or Mediterrean maybe he's mixed).
Still interesting nonetheless and it's great to see actors of different ethnicities contributing to Hollywood.
I don't know what you think Arab men look like, but Michael Nouri has a definate "Arab" look as I know many many Arabs and he looks very Arabic. By the way, Arabs are Mediterranean. Learn how to spell it!

Thanks so much for that link. I have always thought Michael Nouri was one of the most gorgeous and talented actors around. It appears he's also pretty down-to-earth!

He's half Iraqi (his father was born in Baghdad) and half Irish-American (his mother). It is in his bio and elsewhere.
