Anna Akhmatova (Anna Andreevna Gorenko) was born on June 23, 1889 in Odessa, Ukraine and died on March 5, 1966 in St. Petersburg, Russia at age 76.
Short Biography:
Among her works are the cycle Requiem 1963 (written in the 1930s), which deals with the Stalinist terror, and Poem without a hero 1962 (begun 1940).
In the 1920s she published several collections of poetry in the realist style of Mandelshtam, but her lack of sympathy with the post-revolutionary regimes inhibited her writing, and her work was banned 1922-1940 and again from 1946.
From the mid-1950s her work was gradually rehabilitated in the USSR. In 1989 an Akhmatova Museum was opened in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg).
