Tribute to Michael Hart
by Majid AlHydar
About the author
Born in Baghdad in 1960, Majid AlHydar is described in biographical sources as an Iraqi poet, short story writer, and translator. Those same sources note that he graduated from the College of Dentistry in Baghdad in 1984.
AlHydar has written and translated in Arabic, Kurdish, and English, giving his work a notably cross-cultural range. His online author pages and biographical entries present him as active across several forms at once, including poetry, storytelling, journalism, and literary translation.
English-language readers may know him from Tribute to Michael Hart, a book published through Project Gutenberg. Across the sources available, he emerges as a versatile literary figure whose career bridges original writing and translation.
