Biography

[edit]

He was born on 2 November 1958 in the town of Douris in Baalbek, Lebanon, to a Maronite Christian family.

In the mid-80's, he began his media career when he was discovered by the television director Simon Asmar,[6] and presented many entertainment programs.

In 1986, he started hosting the "Iftah Ya Simsim" (افتح يا سمسم) program on LBC, and he became famous in "Al Shater Ye'ki" (الشاطر يحكي) on MTV.[6]

Then he hosted the political talk show "Istifta'" (استفتاء "Referendum") on MTV,[4] which one of its episodes resulted in the closure of the channel by court order in 2002, with charges against the station and Ziad himself.[7][8][9]

Then he moved in 2003[10][11] to Alhurra TV channel, where he broadcast the program "sa'aa horra" (ساعة حرة, "Free Hour"),[9] which dealt with taboo topics in the Arab world like incest and same-sex marriage.[5]
