Mahmoud Elkamshoushy (July 28 1915 in Alexandria – March 5 1971) was an Egyptian poet. He wrote several monologues for Ismail Yassin and Mahmoud Shokoko, among his most famous works being the monologue "They Hurt Me and Closed the Pharmacies."[1] The monologue was composed by Mahmoud El-Sherif.
He wrote numerous radio series for Radio Alexandria, including the series "Hamido." The poet Mahmoud Elkamshoushy contributed significantly to artistic works in collaboration with prominent broadcaster Hafez Abdel Wahab, and they played a vital role in establishing Radio Alexandria as the first regional radio station.[2]
He also wrote songs for Egyptian cinema, such as the song "The Wind Jumped" for the Al-Darawish group, which was performed in the film Ismail Yassin Tarzan, and the song "The Flayki" by Abbas Al-Balidi. He wrote the monologues "Sugar and Rumors," performed by Ismail Yassin.[3]
Al-Kamshoushi wrote the first song in the history of Radio Alexandria, "We Are the Free People," and wrote about Arab nationalism in folk poetry.[4]
He shared a close friendship with the lyric poet Mohamed Ali Ahmed, and they exchanged folk poems via pigeon post, with messages traveling between Cairo and Alexandria. Al-Kamshoushi documented these poems in handwritten letters, each dated with its sending or receiving date.[5]
