Zinat al Sadat Pirzadeh, born in the city Sari in the Mazandaran province in the north of Iran, is a Swedish-Iranian comedian, actress and writer. She is probably the first female stand-up comedian ever from Iran.

Pirzadeh reached Sweden in 1991 and was granted permanent residence permission after three years. She has worked with eldery care, modeling and within education as a school councilor before she established herself on the  Swedish stand up scene. Today she is a well known face in Sweden.

Pirzadeh writes poetry and fiction as well as texts for radio, newspapers  and magazines and is currently working on her novel The Maiden and The Wolf  which is to be published by Swedish publishing giant Piratförlaget.

She has acted in a couple of Swedish feature films that are to be released in 2007: "Se upp för dårarna" where she plays against Turkish star Korhan Abay; and "Det tysta skriket", and is already engaged for other film projects.
