Life

Kudryavtsewa's father, Alexei Osipovich Sorokin, was an agronomist. The writer Nikolai Nikolayevich Slatovratsky was her grandfather. She studied at the Moscow Timiryazev - Horticultural Technical Center . With a group of students she visited Ivan Vladimirovich Michurin in August 1929 .

After graduating in 1930, Kudrjawzewa worked as a gardener in the Moscow Kremlin and in Gorky Park . She was involved in planting the spruce trees at the Lenin mausoleum . She married Pavel Prokopjewitsch Kudryavtsev, with whom she had 5 children. When her husband was transferred during the German-Soviet War , Kudrjawzewa moved with the family to Tashkent in 1942, only to return to Moscow after the war.

In 1948 Kudrjawzewa was employed in Laboratory W in Obninsk, which built the first Soviet nuclear power plant . The family lived in a small wooden house on the site of the future school No. 2. On this site, they built the first orangery with three large greenhouses in 1948 for growing vegetables with onions , cucumbers and tomatoes and for flowers . She also planted an apple orchard , which was partially preserved when School No. 2 was built. In addition, she looked after Obninsk's parks and green spaces.

Kudrjawzewa was friends with the painter Pyotr Petrovich Konchalovsky, who had bought the Bugry estate on the outskirts of Obninsk in 1932 from the artist Anna Ivanovna Trojanowskaja and who had painted Lilac in 1933 . Konchalovsky gave her lilac seedlings , which she reproduced and distributed throughout Obninsk.

Kudryavtseva headed the Obninsk Department of the All-Russian Conservation Society from the beginning. While her children were in school, she headed the school's parents committee. She initiated and organized horticultural societies and flower exhibitions. 1963–1966 she was a member of parliament in the Soviet city of Obninsk.

On March 1, 1989, Kudrjawzewa was dismissed and retired from Laboratory W, which was now the Physics- Energy Institute.

In 1996, the Obninsk city assembly decided to name the central avenue of the city's Lower Park after Kudryavtseva. In 1999 the decision was changed so that a square in the center of Obninsk with its stele now bears Kudryavzewa's name.
