Martin Foroz (Mohammad Forouzani) was born on the 30th of December 1964 in Tehran, Iran. He holds BA and MA degrees in English Literature and a Ph.D. degree in TEFL. He has been working as an assistant professor of English Language and Literature at the University of Nizwa, Oman, since 2014.

He insatiably read Persian Literature (his first language) and wrote poems and pieces of prose since he was in high school.
