Z. was born on 4 July 1859 in Bialystok, Poland, to an aristocratic merchant family. He studied in a cheder and became involved, at an young age, with the Jewish Enlightenment Movement (Haskalah). Starting in 1879, he wrote newly published correspondences, editorials and feature articles in the Hebrew language newspapers “HaTzipora”, “HaMalitz” and later in the Yiddish press. 

In his “Pages from a Journal” Zabludovski published a four-act comedy “Unjustified Good Fortune” (Dos umgerichte glik), his one-act play “A Better Livelihood (A shenere parnosseh)", Bialystok 1918; “Embittered Hearts (Farbitterte herzer)", Warsaw 1923;  “Expropriation (Ekspropriatzya)" Warsaw 1923, and his play “Sons-in-law/Doctors ("Eydems doktoyrim)", a comedy in three acts, Bialystok 1924. These were presented by the dramatic department of the Bialystok Union’s “Yiddish Art” (“Yidish kunst”).
