description: "Mehdi Bamdad was an Iranian civil servant who is principally known as the author of the Sharh-e hal-e rejal-e Iran dar qorun-e 12 va 13 va 14 hejri. Because it was the first attempt to compile a national biography of Iran, Bamdad's work is considered significant, particularly for the images it includes."
