Havel, Václav (1936– ) Czech statesman and dramatist. He wrote a series of plays, such as
The Garden Party (1963), that were critical of Czechoslovakia's communist regime. Havel was the leading spokesman for the dissident group Charter 77 and was imprisoned (1979–83). In 1989, he founded Civic Forum. Following the ‘Velvet Revolution’ (December 1989), Havel was elected president of Czechoslovakia.
