Ryenchinii Choinom

He was born on 10 February 1936 in the Darkhan Sum of the Khentii Province and died in 1978.

Throughout his life, his poems were widely popular but never received any official recognition under communist Mongolia.

He was jailed under pretext of writing poems that neglect the "Socialist achievements" and his works were prohibited.

Choinom graduated from the literature department of the National University of Mongolia, and pursued a productive literary career that gave birth to several novels and to collections of poems such as "Sumtei Budaryn Chuluu".

In 1991, Choinom was posthumously issued the Mongolian National Honor.
