- Short biography
- Anna Politkovskaya, born Anna Mazepa in New York City, the daughter of Soviet diplomats (I note that there is a photo attached to "Anna Politkovskaja" - perhaps that could be reattached to this entry if it is legitimate to use that image?). She became an investigative reporter and strident Kremlin critic before being assassinated in her own apartment building in Moscow. The murder remains unsolved.
