Although his novels are viewed as highly literary, Livaneli is also considered the most popular contemporary author of Turkey today. The article "A festival of musical contrasts", which appeared in the International New York Times (9.7.2014) refers to Zuflu Livaneli as a composer.

Livaneli is known for his novels that interweave diverse social and historical backgrounds, figures, and incidents, such as in Blis which won the Barnes & Noble's Discovery of Great New Writers Award in 2006, and in his critically acclaimed Serenade for Nadia, Leyla's House, and My Brother's Story, which were all translated into 37 languages and won numerous Turkish and International literary awards, and were highly praised by prominent literary critics around the world. His novels have been turned into theatrical movies, stage plays, and operas.

Livaneli was imprisoned several times during the 1971 Turkish coup d'état because of his political views and had to leave Turkey in 1972 and went on exile. He lived in Stockholm, Paris, Athens, and New York where he met and collaborated with artists and intellectuals such as Elia Kazan, Arthur Miller, James Baldwin, and Peter Ustinov among others. Livaneli returned to Turkey in 1984.

His works and cultural and political activities and contributions to world peace were recognized by UNESCO in 1995 when he was appointed Goodwill Ambassador to UNESCO—a post he still holds today. He served a term in the Turkish Parliament as well as in the Council of Europe.

Livaneli is as accomplished as a writer as he is as a poet and a songwriter, cultural and political activist. Although he first became known for his contemporary music, Livaneli turned his focus to writing, in the last decades, when he realized that literature was closer to his heart. His first collection of short stories, A Child in Purgatory, published in 1978 was turned into a movie by Swedish and German TV.He is also a prominent social-democrat politician and was a member of the Turkish parliament for one term. Livaneli's novels have been turned into theatrical movies, stage plays, and operas.

Livaneli is known for his contemporary music, in much the same way as Bob Dylan and his contemporaries in the United States were in the 60's. His 1997 Ankara concert was attended by no less than 500 thousand people. His collaborations with Mikis Theodorakis of Greece have been noted as a gesture of bringing together the two countries. Livaneli has been a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador since 1996.

Livaneli has composed some three hundred songs, a rhapsody recorded by London Symphony Orchestra–, and a ballet. His compositions have reached cult status nationwide and have been performed by internationally renowned artists such as Joan Baez, Maria Farantouri, María del Mar Bonet, Udo Lindenberg, Haris Alexiou, Jocelyn B. Smith, and Kate Westbrook. He has also written five plays and thirty film soundtracks. Among these soundtracks are the soundtrack for "Yol" (The Path), directed by Yilmaz Güney and winner of the Golden Palm in Cannes Film Festival, "The Herd", directed by Yılmaz Güney and Zeki Ökten, and "Shirin's Wedding" by German director Helma Sanders-Brahms. His recordings have been published in the USA, Sweden, Germany, Holland and France, and he has given dozens of concerts throughout the world. He has produced albums and performed with Mikis Theodorakis and Maria Farantouri, and he has also collaborated with Manos Hatzidakis, Giora Feidman, Inti-Illimani and Ángel Parra. In 2010, he sang 'Mothers of The Disappeared' with Bono at U2's concert in Istanbul, Turkey, which was U2's first-ever concert in Istanbul. Livaneli has been distinguished with the awards Best Album of the Year (Greece), the Edison Award (Holland), and Best Album of the Year (Music Critics Guild of Germany), and the "Premio Luigi Tenco" Best Songwriter Award, San Remo, Italy, in 1999, among others.

When Livaneli finished his school his father was going to buy him a bicycle, while his father was walking he seen a kid with bicycle got hit by a truck his father said "I'm going to get you a saz". Livaneli would hide his saz in his room because he didn't want his friends to know about it.

Ulker is a translator.
The First Album And How Did He Became Famous

Livaneli was trying to go to Europe because he went to jail two times. For his first album, he didn't use his current name, Zülfü Livaneli. Instead, he used the name "Ozanoglu". Yet he did not get to the point where he wanted to be, therefore, he started using his current name, Zülfü Livaneli, on his new album, Chants Révolutionnaires Turcs (Turkish Revolutionary songs) in 1971 or 1973. When he was in Europe, his brother Ferhat informed him about how his songs were being sang by everyone in Turkey while they were protesting the government. Livaneli was in shock as he did not even know how the people in Turkey knew him, when he asked this, Ferhat's answer was "They know you." . Livaneli made an album called "Nazim Türküsü" the album was turning the well renowned poet Nazim Hikmet's poems to music and it became and stayed at the top hit on albums album for 48 weeks. In 1986, the Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis met Livaneli, they then proceeded to make an album called Güneş Topla Benim İçin (Gather The Sun For Me). After when the album was released in Turkey it was one of the peek of the Turkish music. At that time Livaneli met Ahmet Kaya which is another valuable folk singer, their political views about peace were similar. They were both strong and uniting figures. 1980s were the years Livaneli reached his first peak. London Orchestra performed with Livaneli in 1998, and in 1999, UNESCO assisted Livaneli on the release of that album. Now Livaneli has millions of fans In Turkey and outside of Turkey.

Political life

Apart from his remarkable career as an author and poet, Livaneli was highly influential in Turkish politics over the last thirty years. In the 2002 Turkish elections, Livaneli was elected to the Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisi (Grand National Assembly of Turkey) as a Deputy for Istanbul for the Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP). Livaneli resigned from the CHP in early 2005, however, in protest at "CHP's non-democratic and authoritarian system of politics",[1][2]

During his political career in Ankara, Livaneli presented a legislative proposal for amending Article 301 of the Turkish Penal Code. The amendment proposed that the concept of "Turkishness" should be replaced with that of the "Turkish nation" which would put an emphasis on the concept of "nation" which, as formulated by the Republic, unites under its umbrella people of different origins. With this amendment, there would no more be a stress on the notion of Turkish race.

Besides this, in 2006 he presented a proposal to the National Assembly demanding that a commission be established in order to investigate the reasons for increasing violence and fanaticism among the youth; his proposal was accepted.

Following his resignation from the party membership, Livaneli continued in his position in the Grand National Assembly as an independent until the end of that term. He did not take part in the 2007 Turkish elections and appears politically inactive. He has since concentrated on his art and books.

Livaneli was a daily contributor as a columnist in the newspapers Sabah, Vatan, and Milliyet.
Films

Livaneli directed four feature films: Iron Earth, Copper Sky, Mist, Shahmaran and Veda. His film Iron Earth, Copper Sky was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1987 Cannes Film Festival.[3] Veda that based on the life of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is the last film written and directed by Zülfü Livaneli.

One of the most acclaimed Turkish films of the decade – and one of the first narrative films to tackle the highly charged subject of honor killings – Bliss was originally adopted from Livaneli's best-seller novel. The film, reviewed by New York Times as a consistently gripping, visually intoxicating film and standing as a landmark of contemporary Turkish cinema.

İlk yılları

Tam adı Ömer Zülfü Livanelioğlu olup, aslen Artvin’in Yusufeli ilçesinden olan Livanelioğlu ailesinin büyük dedeleri Ömer Efendi 93 Harbi’nde Artvin’in Ermeni ve Rus işgaline uğraması üzerine Erzurum’a gelerek Ahmet Muhtar Paşa’nın ordusuna katılmıştır.

Ömer Efendi Harput Redif Taburu’na mülazım rütbesiyle atanır. Daha sonra burada çıkan çatışmada şehit düşer. Ömer Efendi’nin tek oğlu olan Zülfü Efendi, Türkiye’nin muhtelif yerlerinde sorgu hakimi olarak görev yapar. Soyadı Kanunu çıktığında, babasının geldiği Artvin/Yusufeli/Livane Sancağı'na izafeten Livanelioğlu soyadını alır. Zülfü Efendi’nin oğullarından üçü de hakim olmuştur. En büyükleri ve Zülfü Livaneli'nin babası olan Mustafa Sabri Livanelioğlu, Yargıtay Başkanlığı’na kadar yükselmiştir.
Kariyeri

ABD Fairfax Konservatuarı'nı bitirmiştir. Zülfü Livanelioğlu bağlama çalmayı teyzesi Nazmiye (Türeli) Yücel'in eşi olan eniştesi Turhan Yücel'den, Ilgın'da yaşadığı yıllarda ve yaz tatillerinde öğrendiğinde, eniştesi Turhan bey'in kendisine hayatını değiştirecek bir sermayeyi hediye ettiğinden haberi yoktu.

Zülfü Livaneli, müziği ile birçok ulusal ve uluslararası ödül aldı ve eserleri Joan Baez, Maria Farantouri, Maria del Mar Bonet, Leman Sam gibi yerli ve yabancı sanatçı tarafından yorumlandı. Kültür, sanat ve politika alanında Türkiye’nin önemli isimlerinden birisi olan sanatçı, sanat yaşamı boyunca 300'e yakın besteye ve 30 film müziğine imzasını attı.

Türkiye'den ansızın ayrılarak İsveç'e sürgün yıllarında bulaşıkçıklık dahil muhtelif işlerde çalışan Livaneli'nin en büyük arzusu bir gün Türkan Şoray ile tanışabilmek ve o zaman Türkiye'de suçlanan kişilerin uğrak yeri haline gelen İsveç'te bulunan ünlü yazar, gazeteci veya şairlerle karşılaşabilmekti.

Bugüne kadar dört uzun metrajlı film yönetti: "Yer Demir Gök Bakır", "Sis", "Şahmaran" ve "Veda". Valencia Film Festivali'nde "Altın Palmiye" ve 1989'da Montpelier Film Festivali'nde "Altın Antigone" ödülüne layık görüldü. "Sis", "En iyi Avrupa Film Ödülü"ne aday gösterildi.

Ekim 1986'da Cengiz Aytmatov'un daveti üzerine Federico Major, Yaşar Kemal, Arthur Miller ve diğer ünlü sanatçı ve düşünürlerin katıldığı Kırgızistan ve daha sonra Wengen, Granada ve Mexico City'de toplanan Issyk-Kul Forumu'nda yer aldı.

Livaneli, Elia Kazan, Jack Lang, Vanessa Redgrave, Arthur Miller, Mikis Theodorakis gibi ünlü kişilerle birlikte dünya kültürünün ilerlemesi ve dünya sanatlarının gelişmesine katkıda bulunmak üzere çalışmalarda bulundu.

1996 yılında Paris’te merkezi bulunan UNESCO (Birleşmiş Milletlerin Eğitim Kültür Bilim Kurulu) tarafından büyükelçilik verilen sanatçı Livaneli, 1978 yılında yaptığı "Nazım Türküsü" adlı albümde Nazım Hikmet'in şiirlerinden bestelediği şarkıları bir araya getirdi.

"Arafatta bir çocuk", "Geçmişten Geleceğe Türküler", "Sis", "Orta Zekalılar Cenneti", "Diktatör ile Palyaço", "Sosyalizm öldü mü", "Engereğin Gözündeki Kamaşma" ve "Bir Kedi, Bir Adam, Bir Ölüm" ve "Mutluluk" ve Leyla'nın Evi, Sevdalim Hayat, Son Ada ve Sanat Uzun, Hayat Kisa, Serenad, Kardeşimin Hikayesi kitaplarının yazarı olan Livaneli, hâlen Vatan Gazetesi'nde köşe yazarlığına devam etmektedir. Sanatçı uluslararası kültür çevrelerinde tanınmakta ve saygı görmektedir.

Ömer Zülfü Livaneli Ülker Hanım'la evlidir ve bir kızı vardır. Kızı Aylin Livaneli eğitimi ve yaptığı pek çok işten sonra müzik ile ilgilenmiş ve beş albüm çıkarmıştır. Müziğe ara veren Aylin Livaneli şu an yurt dışında ekonomi üzerine eğitim almaktadır. Yayınlanmış 3 kitabı bulunmaktadır. Livaneli vejetaryendir.

19 Mayıs 1997 tarihinde, Ankara Hipodrom meydanında verdiği konsere 500.000 kişinin katılmasıyla Türkiye'nin en büyük konserini gerçekleştirme ünvanını kazanmıştır.[1]
Siyasi kariyeri

Livaneli 1994 yerel seçimlerinde, Sosyaldemokrat Halkçı Parti'den İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediye Başkanlığı'na aday oldu. Anavatan Partisi'nin adayı İlhan Kesici, Refah Partisi'nin adayı Recep Tayyip Erdoğan ve Doğru Yol Partisi'nin adayının Bedrettin Dalan olduğu çekişmeli seçim sürecinde oyların %20,30'unu alan Livaneli üçüncü geldi.[2] Erdoğan ise %25,19'luk bir oranla Belediye Başkanı seçildi.[2] Livaneli, 2002 genel seçimlerinde Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi'den İstanbul milletvekili seçildi. Partinin 13. Olağanüstü Kurultayı'nda yeter sayıda imza bulamadığı için genel başkan adayı olamadı ve parti yönetimini ağır şekilde suçlayarak istifa etti.[3] Livaneli, istifasını açıklarken şunları söyledi:
“    CHP yönetimi, Atatürk'ün laik, devrimci, halkçı, çağdaş ve reformcu çizgisini 21. yüzyıla taşıyamadığı için ülkemizi içinden çıkılması güç bir siyasi karmaşaya sürükledi. Bu büyük tarihsel ve siyasi kaymayı engelleyebilmek ve CHP'yi özündeki devrimci, reformcu ilkelere tekrar kavuşturabilmek için, parti içinde her düzeyde büyük çaba harcadım. Ama ne yazık ki bu çabalar da diğerleri gibi sonuçsuz kaldı. Partideki muhalif fikir ve kişileri yok etme alışkanlığı, bu kurultaydan sonra da bir kıyıma dönüşerek devam ediyor. CHP içinde kalarak mücadele etme yolları artık tükendi. Parti, örneği görülmemiş bir şekilde antidemokratik ve oligarşik bir yapıya dönüştürüldü.[3]    ”
