Olga Ivinskaya

writer Russia

Olga Ivinskaya (1911–1995) was a Russian writer and the muse of the Nobel Prize-winning author Boris Pasternak. She played a significant role in Pasternak's life and work, notably influencing his masterpiece 'Doctor Zhivago.' Ivinskaya's relationship with Pasternak was fraught with challenges, including political persecution and personal hardships. She was imprisoned for her connections to Pasternak during Stalin's regime, which reflected the dangerous intersection of art and politics in Soviet Russia. After Pasternak's death, Ivinskaya continued to advocate for his legacy, becoming a symbol of the struggles faced by artists under totalitarianism.
