Falih Rıfkı Atay (1894– 20 March 1971) was a Turkish journalist, writer and politician between 1923 and 1950.[1]
Biography
Falih Rıfkı was the son of Halil Hilmi Efendi, an imam. He was educated in Istanbul, Ottoman Empire.[1] Falih began his career as a journalist in the Tanin, a CUP newspaper.[1] He later became the private secretary of Talat Pasha, and during World War I accompanied Cemal Pasha in the Sinai and Palestine Campaign.[1] After the war, he, with three other friends, founded the newspaper Akşam supporting the Turkish War of Independence.[1] From 1919 to 1920 Falih Rıfkı was one of the contributors of Büyük Mecmua magazine which also supported the war of independence.[2] On September 9, 1922, he travelled to the liberated Izmir to visit Mustafa Kemal Atatürk with Yakup Kadri and arrived on the 13th of September just before the fire.[3] Later, he became an editor-in-chief in the Hakimiyet-i Milliye. He entered politics in 1923, and served as deputy of Bolu and later Ankara in the parliament until the 1950 Turkish general election.[1]
In the early 1950s Atay contributed to the history magazine Tarih Dünyası.[4] He was the author of more than 30 works.[1]
Falih Rıfkı Atay died on 20 March 1971 in Istanbul. He was interred there at Zincirlikuyu Cemetery.

Zafer Sonrası Sanatı: Gazetecilik. Nereye gideceği: İzmir'e. 9 Eylül 338 (1922) tarihli yolculuk vesikam şimdi masamın üstünde. Arka sayfasında fesli resmim ve biri Fransızca, biri İngilizce iki vize var. Sözde kendi memleketimizdeyiz. Yakup Kadri ile beraber Paguet kumpanyasının Lamartine vapurundayız. Ta Kadifekale'de Türk bayrağını görünceye kadar İzmir'e çıkıp çıkmıyacağımızı bilmiyorduk. Eğer bir gecikme olmuşsa, vapurda kalacaktık. [...]Önce Kramer Palas oteline gidip güçlükle üst katta bir oda bulduk ve eşyalarımızı bıraktık.[...]Büyük yangın günü idi. Ateş mahalleleri sardıkça halk rıhtım üzerine koşuşuyordu. Bir iki saat sonra otele gitmeyi bile ihtiyatsız bulduk ve karargâhta kaldık.
