In 1960, he returned to Moscow, where he took charge of the American desk of the Soviet Foreign Ministry. A tall Ukrainian with receding, slightly greying hair, Dobrynin, 42, will be the first Soviet envoy to the U.S. who was born after the Russian revolution; in the youthful climate of present-day Washington, he should fit in well as a liudi novykh granits - or Soviet-style New Frontiersman...
Ruth Gikow is the daughter of a Ukrainian photographer who took his family west shortly after the Soviet revolution. The family roamed about Europe for a while, spent a year at a gypsy camp outside Bucharest, finally settled down on New York's Lower East Side-where it is natural for an imaginative girl to long for a French maid...
