Steve Kerr Father Assassination 

The coach was born on September 27, 1965, in Beirut, Lebanon, to his parents, Ann Kerr and Malcolm H. Kerr. 

Steve’s father, Malcolm, was the president of the American University of Beirut.

On January 18, 1984, two attackers tragically shot twice in the back of Malcolm’s head as he stepped out of the elevator at his office at the University.

According to New York Times, a group calling itself the Islamic Holy War claimed responsibility for the assassination, which opposed American presence in Lebanon.

Malcolm had a great influence on his life. Even though he passed away early, he taught him valuable lessons that helped him become successful.
