Vladimira (Mira) Ieronimowna Uborevich (Russian: Владимира Иеронимовна Уборевич, 14 February 1924, Chita - 21 February 2020, Moscow) was a Russian architect and author of memoirs, describing her experiences as a child of an enemy of the people.
In 1930, her family moved to Moscow. In 1937, her father Ieronim Uborevich, a prominent Soviet military commander, was arrested and executed, together with Mikhail Tukhachevsky, Iona Yakir and August Kork. She was a friend of Mikhail Bulgakov's wife, Elena Sergeevna Bulgakova.[1]
The family was exiled to Astrakhan. Vladimira grew up in an orphanage in Sverdlovsk, but started to live with her mother's friend, Elena Bulgakova, after her mother was shot for being the wife of an enemy of the people in 1941. She studied at the Moscow Architectural Institute.
In 1944 Mira was arrested at 18 for being the daughter of an enemy of the people and convicted five years to the Vorkutlag camp. She was rehabilitated, and graduated from Moscow State University of Civil Engineering. She worked at Zentromasch.[2]
In 1960s, following the advice of Elena Bulgakova, she wrote a number of letters, remembering her childhood and later experiences.
