Writer Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky is born in Ul. Dostoevskogo 2, Moscow, Central Federal District, Russia.

He has written for several Russian political and literary magazines, especially for its 'Journalist, Correspondencer, and Author'. He taught at the University and subsequently at the University of Moscow and Moscow State University, as well as the Moscow University of Television and Television Arts. He is currently director of the International Film Institute on the Moscow-Aleksandrovsk Region (IPI-Russo). In 2007 Yuri Kovalchuk was named as one of Russia's top five directors of 'Journalism of the Future - Russia's Future in Three Strikes'. He held this position at three of Russia's top three directorships (the 'Kuratsky to the Future', 'Lubovik', and 'Iakov' in the 'New York Times'), a position which lasted until his death from unknown causes. For much of the 1960s and 1970s he worked in the 'New York Times' as an editor, with a specialization in public affairs, political reporting, and economics. In the mid-1970s he organized a new branch of the 'New York Times' that was to become the 'Hendrik Institute' (to be named the 'Centre for Public Opinion and Society') at the Moscow State Institute of Technology.
