Anna Alexandrovna Vyrubova, née Taneyeva (16 July 1884 - 20 July 1964), was a lady-in-waiting and the best friend and confidante of Tsaritsa Alexandra Fyodorovna. Born in Oranienbaum to Aleksandr Taneyev, Chief Steward to His Majesty's Chancellery and a noted composer and Nadezhda née Tolstoy, who was descended from Field Marshal Mikhail Kutuzov, Anna was attached to the imperial court from an early age. The Tsarina valued Anna's devotion to her and befriended her, ignoring women of more distinction at the court. At age 20 Anna was given a position at court for the first time in 1905, and her importance at court quickly grew, as she went to live in a summer home at Tsarskoe Selo a mere 200 yards from the Alexander Palace with her telephone connected directly to the Palace switchboard. Following the Russian Revolution, Anna Vyrubova was arrested on 21 March 1917 and spent five months in prison at the Peter and Paul Fortress in interrogation on her political role. Her experiences during her captivity, along with her life at the Russian Court, are related in her memoirs published in 1923, Memories of the Russian Court. Vyrubova spent the rest of her life first in Viipuri and later in Helsinki. She took vows as a Russian Orthodox nun, but was permitted to live in a private home due to her physical disabilities. She died, aged 80, in Helsinki, where her grave is located in the Orthodox section of Hietaniemi cemetery.
