Zareh Yaldizciyan (10 May 1924 – 20 February 2007), better known by his pen name Zahrad (Template:Lang-hy), was a Western Armenian poet.
Biography
Zahrad was born in Istanbul, Turkey. His father, Movses, had been a jurist, adviser, and translator for the Ottoman Foreign Ministry. His mother, Ankine, was from Samatya.
In 1942 he graduated from Özel Pangaltı Ermeni Lisesi, the local Mechitarist Armenian lyceum. He attended medical school for a short time but decided to put his education on hold in order to work. He began writing under a pen name because he felt that his family would not be receptive to his work. In November 1963, he married Anayis Antreasian.
Legacy
Levon Ananyan, the president of the Writers Union of Armenia, characterized Zahrad as "the huge oak tree of diasporan poetry, whose literary heritage had a deep and stable influence upon modern poetry of not only the diaspora, but also Armenia."
