Reza Kamal (1898-11 September 1937), better known by his nickname Shahrzad or Scheherazade, was an Iranian dramatist and playwright. He was born in Tehran. From his childhood he liked One Thousand and One Nights and its storyteller Scheherazade. Because of this interest, he chose Shahrzad as his nickname years later. He studied French language and literature in Saint-Louis when he was young. Since he was interested in French literature, he translated some French plays to Persian on those years and then started to adopt some plays, to write some original plays and to direct some of his own plays. Since he lived under a very suppressive government with a very restrictive censorship, he usually used historical and mythical characters and stories to talk about his time. One of the very important characteristics of his plays was using female characters as his main characters. He committed suicide in 11 September 1937.〔Khalaj, Mansoor. (1992). ''Iranian Playwrights''.
