It is believed that Haggai was a Jew, born in Babylon, who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel and the Jews after the exile, in 537 B.C.E., but the Scriptures do not name the prophet's parents or tribe. He was the first postexilic Hebrew prophet in Judah and Jerusalem during the reign of King Darius Hystaspis (Haggai 1:1; Haggai 2:1,10+20; Ezra 5:1+2)and was joined shortly thereafter by Zechariah. (Haggai 1:1; Zechariah 1:1). Haggai and Zechariah encouraged the Jewish exiles to rebuild the Temple (Ezra 3:10-13; 4:1-24; Haggai 1:4)(Haggai 1:1; 2:1,10+20) until it was completed in 515 B.C.E.(Ezra 5:1, 2; 6:14, 15).

But, history records he died in peace.

Some say the object of the Book of Haggai seems to be to immortalise Haggai by giving him credit for commencement of the Temple, suggesting that the book was written much later when there were no longer any witnesses to refute the claim. On that view, Haggai could not have been the real author. We simply do not know.
