Was an astronomer, mathematician, inventor, geographer, cartographer, artist, poet, statesman, and literary scholar from Nanyang, Henan during the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25–220) of China. He was educated in the capital cities of Luoyang and Chang'an, began his career in a minor civil service in Nanyang, and eventually became Chief Astronomer, Prefect of the Majors for Official Carriages, and then Palace Attendant at the imperial court. With unyielding stances on certain historical and calendrical issues, Zhang was seen as a somewhat controversial figure and hence was barred from becoming an official court historian. His political contention with palace eunuchs over influencing the policies of Emperor Shun (r. 125–144) led to his retirement from the central court to serve as an administrator of Hejian in Hebei. He retired and returned home to Nanyang for a short period of time, but was recalled to serve at the capital once more in 138, where he died a year later.
