Yılmaz Zafer (24 September 1956 - 9 November 1995), Turkish theater and cinema actor. Yılmaz Zafer started acting in the theater at the Fatih Halkevi due to his admiration for Perihan Savaş and later transferred to the City Theaters. He played roles in various theater companies such as Gülriz Sururi - Engin Cezzar Theater. In 1976, he started working in cinema and directed more than 40 films. In the movie İskilip'li Atıf Hoca, he impressed the audience with his role as Ferit, the lawyer of İskilip'li Atıf Hoca, who was sentenced to death for siding with the occupation forces during the War of Independence and the National Struggle, inciting the people against the Kuvayi Milliye forces and causing serious damage to this struggle. In 1987, he married Perihan Savaş, whom he had admired for a long time, and had a child from this marriage. He and his wife founded the “Yönetim Film and Advertising Company”. After suffering two heart attacks, the first of which occurred in April 1994, the artist lived in need of care for a long time and died as a result of a cerebral hemorrhage.
