Hossein Qoli Mostaan was born in Tehran in 1283. After finishing high school at Dar al-Funun, he studied at the school of political science for a while. He started working as a journalist at the beginning of the century (Hijri Shamsi) and at the age of 17 as a journalist and photographer in the semi-official newspaper “Iran”.
