Mirza Aqa Tabrizi

Mirza Aqa Tabrizi was born in Tabriz, the son of Mirza Mohammad-Mahdi, and learned French and Russian early; neither the date of his birth nor, with certainty, that of his death is known. For several years he was interpreter to the foreign masters of the royal school, the Dar al-Fonun, then served in the Iranian embassies in Baghdad and Istanbul, and was for nearly seven years first secretary of the French embassy in Tehran. He corresponded with Mirza Fath-Ali Akhundzadeh, whose example decided him to write original plays in Persian.
