Biography
She was born in 1923 in the city of Volsk, Saratov Oblast, into a large working-class family. In 1929, the family moved to the city of Balakovo, where her father worked at a ship repair plant.
In June 1941, after graduating from high school, she enrolled in the Volsk Teacher's Institute, but the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War prevented her from beginning her studies. She worked at the Balakovo district industrial complex, and in 1942, after moving to be with her older brother in Izhevsk, she worked at the "Medvedevo" sovkhoz—an auxiliary farm for the Izhstal Plant—and later as a work assigner at the plant.
In the autumn of 1942, she was admitted without exams to the philological faculty of the Izhevsk Pedagogical Institute, where she was elected by the students as the institute's Komsomol leader.
In the spring of 1943, the Udmurt Regional Committee of the Komsomol sent her as a komsorg to the construction of the Izhevsk–Balezino railway. In October 1943, at the age of 20, she was accepted as a member of the VKP(b).
After the war, having completed her studies in the spring of 1946, she worked for two years as a teacher in the secondary school of the village of Karakulino, becoming the youngest teacher there and the only one with a higher education.
In 1948, she entered the postgraduate program at the M. N. Pokrovsky Leningrad Pedagogical Institute (now Herzen University), while simultaneously teaching at the Leningrad Institute of Foreign Languages.
In 1951, she defended her dissertation on the topic "The Problem of National Character in the Works of G. R. Derzhavin."
From 1952 to 1963, she was the head of the literature and folklore sector at the Udmurt Institute of History, Language and Literature of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
From 1963 to 1985, she was a lecturer and associate professor in the department of Russian and foreign literature at Udmurt State University.
She did not defend her doctoral dissertation, although it was ready, on the topic of "Udmurt Folklore." Her postgraduate students included future literary scholars P. K. Pozdeev and D. A. Yashin.
She was a member of the Union of Soviet Writers from 1959 and was elected as a delegate to the IV and VI Congresses of Writers of the RSFSR (1975, 1985).
From the mid-1960s, for more than ten years, she headed the Udmurt branch of the Soviet Peace Fund. She was twice elected as a deputy of the Izhevsk City Council.
After retiring in 1984, she continued her scientific activities and translation work, participating in the preparation of collections.
She died in 2016.
