Aramais Vardani Hovsepian (Armenian: Արամայիս Վարդանի Հովսեփյան), known as Arman Hovsepian (Persian: آرمان هوسپیان‎; February 21, 1921 – August 18, 1980) was an Iranian Armenian actor. He was born in Tabriz. He started performing in school theaters before he landed a major role in Namus in 1940 and entered nonprofessional theater. He moved to Tehran in 1954 and joined the theater group of Ararat Club and worked with celebrities like Joseph Vaezian, Samuel Khachikian, and Aramais Aghamalian. He made his first screen debut in Khachikian's first film, The Return (1953), and opted to act mainly in his following pictures: A Girl From Shiraz, Crossroads of Incidents, Blood and Grace, Storm in Our Town, A Cry at Midnight, and Apprehension. Arman was one of the distinctive actors of the 1950s and 1960s Iranian cinema, and the brand of characters he portrayed was mostly rich people gone bankrupt or confronted with serious problems. He tried his hand in directing and producing films with Bride of the Sea in 1965 and raised his production to five. The Tenant (1972) was another movie he directed, produced, and played. He was also the actor and producer of two films by Mohammad Deljou and Amir Mojahed: Cronies (1974) and The Night of the Loners (1975). He died on August 18, 1980 at the age 59 in Barcelona and was buried at Christian Armenian Burastan Cemetery in Tehran
