Born in Baghdad in 1960, he is an Iraqi writer known as a poet, short-story writer, and literary translator. Biographical sources also note that he graduated from the College of Dentistry in Baghdad in 1984, a detail that makes his path into literature especially distinctive.
His published work includes poetry collections, short fiction, translations, and essays, and he has written in Arabic, Kurdish, and English. That multilingual range helps explain the breadth of his writing life, which moves between creative work and translation rather than staying in a single lane.
He is also represented in digital literary archives, including Project Gutenberg, where readers can find works attributed to him. Taken together, the available sources portray a versatile author whose career connects local literary traditions with a wider international readership.
