born Jan. 27, 1891, Kiev, Ukr., Russian Empire
died Aug. 31, 1967, Moscow, Russian S.F.S.R., U.S.S.R.
Russian writer and journalist.
Arrested as a youth for revolutionary activity, he moved to Paris. He worked as a war correspondent, then returned to write for Soviet newspapers. His first novel and best work was
Julio Jurenito and His Disciples (1922). He soon embraced the Soviet regime, eventually becoming one of its most effective spokesmen in the West. The vehemently anti-Western
The Fall of Paris (1941) was followed by
The Storm (1946–47) and
The Ninth Wave (1951–52). After Joseph Stalin's death, Ehrenburg's works, including
The Thaw (1954) and his autobiography,
People, Years, Life, 6 vol. (1960–66), turned critical of Stalin's heritage.
