A person who keeps or writes a diary; someone who records daily events and thoughts in writing.
From Latin 'diarium' (daily record) + suffix '-an' (one who), similar to how 'librarian' comes from 'library'.
This is an older English word that's almost completely replaced by 'diarist' today—it's the kind of term you might find in Victorian novels but almost never in modern writing.
