TEHRAN – Poet Ali Mo’allem Damghani, who is the director of the Iranian Academy of Arts (IAA), was admitted to Tehran’s Shohada-ye Tajrish Hospital on Saturday after suffering a brain problem.
Mo’allem Damghani is expected to make a full recovery in about three to four weeks, his wife told the Persian service of MNA.
“He’s doing fine and responding well to treatment, according to what doctors have said,” she added.
Mo’allem Damghani, 62, is famous for his poems composed on the Islamic Revolution and the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war.
He was selected as the director of IAA in 2009 by President Mahmud Ahmadinejad after former director Mir-Hossein Mousavi was fired by the president.
