Official biography and professional journey

I am Seyyed Bahaedin Morshedi Estahbanati, who works in the literary society of Iran under the name Bahaeddin Morshedi.

I was born on August 18, 1980, in Estahban, one of the cities of Fars province in Iran.

I started my artistic activity in 1990. Acting in the theater has been one of my passions in life. My first professional acting experience took place in the city in 1991. In 1994, I experienced theater directing for the first time.

My first encounter with fiction and fiction workshops began in 1996 in the same city of Estehban.

In 2000, I entered Arak Azad University, majoring in theater acting. In this university, in addition to taking acting lessons, I participated in story workshops and meetings, and during these years my stories were published in magazines.

During these years, he continued to play in plays and participate in student theater festivals. During my student years, I played in four plays, and each of these roles was a new window in my view of the world of drama and story writing.

After finishing my studies, I migrated from Arak city to Tehran and continued my artistic activities in this city.

In these years, street theater was in focus in Iran, so I played in many street theaters from 2004 to 2009.

Due to my interest in poetry, my relationship with Shams Langeroodi increased and following his poems made me think of selecting his poems. This poem selection is the first book of mine titled "Storm Hidden in the Breeze" which was published in one of the most prestigious publications in Iran called "Chashme Publishing".

This book was published in 2005 and is a selection of eight poetry books by Shams Langroudi. This book was reprinted 4 times. In the same year, I entered the field of professional press. I worked in various publications as an editor, editorial secretary, art director and also a journalist until 2017 in these fields. During my professional activity, I have collaborated with various newspapers and publications.

In 2006, I entered the Faculty of Art and Architecture of Azad University of Tehran and studied dramatic literature. In 2008, I defended my thesis entitled "Tradition and Apostasy in the Plays of Federico García Lorca".

In these years, writing stories was considered one of my most important personal activities, and the result of writing these years was published in a book titled "The month when strawberries turn red" in Cheshme Publishing House in 2008.

I worked as the festival's secretary in two periods of "Beyhaghi" story writing festival in 2013 and 2014. This festival gave new storytellers the opportunity to expose themselves to the judges of storytellers by participating in it.

During 2012 and 2013, two collections of my stories with the titles "Dream of this crazy Parisian" and "Elegy of a simple narrative" were published in Afkar publishing house. In these two books, I experienced different spaces of the story. These two books were two different genres in writing short stories, which attracted the attention of the audience of short stories.

The fourth book of my stories named "Five stories from the book of miracles" was published by Nimage in 2015. This book contains five short stories about the problems of women and men living together.

Another collection of stories was published in 2018 in Honar publishing house called "Estahban was lost in the wind and soil". This book contains four stories. Its first story is told in Estahban, the city where I was born, and its characters are also chosen from my family.

The idea of holding a festival called "Health Literature" was proposed and I was chosen as the secretary of this festival. This festival started in 2017 in three sections: "Short Story", "Short Screenplay" and "Playwriting".

In 2017, my first romance was published with the name of "Adam Fekrhai Najoor" with the cooperation of two publishers. This book is a story of a family of three who face identity problems and their lives undergo constant changes. This book is written in fantasy genre.

In 2017, I published a book of selected poems of Hormoz Alipour under the name of "This saddle does not have a saddle" in Rozaneh publishing house. Hormoz Alipour is one of the important poets of the fifties of Iran, who is known as the most important poet of the "pure wave" style of poetry.

Between 2018 and 2020, I migrated from Tehran to Kish Island and continued my activities in the field of public relations. In these years, I worked as public relations in two sculpture symposiums, and in one symposium I worked as a publication manager.

With the popularity of podcasts, the idea of making a podcast about the history of Iranian street music came to my mind. 32 episodes of the podcast called "Bongah Shadmani" written and narrated by me were published between 2020 and 2021 through podcast reader applications.

The novel "Kharshiftegi" was published in Avand Danesh in 2019. This novel is an adaptation of the novel "Don Quixote" by Cervantes. Don Quixote, Sancho, Sancho's donkey and Don Quixote's horse are the characters of this novel.

My fiction activities continue in the years after 2019 by writing stories. The collection of stories "We have not seen Chaplin's congregation", the novel "The Secret of Haunted People", and the novel "Father's Time" are three books that are ready to be published in the literary society of Iran.

Playwriting is also one of my main concerns. For this reason, I have written more than 5 plays that have been staged by myself or other directors.
