The [ital ZZ] pair production ratr in high energy [gamma][gamma] collisions is evaluated with photons from laser backscattering. We find that searching for the standard model Higgs boson with a mass up to, or slightly larger than, 400 GeV via the [ital ZZ] final state is possible via photon fusion with backscattered laser photons at a linear [ital e][sup +][ital e[minus]] collider with energies in the range 600 GeV [lt] [radical][ital s][sub [ital e]][sup +][ital e[minus]][lt]1000 GeV.
