Life

Mikhail Vladimirsky was born in 1874, as the son of Orthodox priest and Duma-member Fedor Vladimirsky.[1] He was in office as Chairman of the Central Executive Committee of the All-Russian Congress of Soviets from 16 March 1919 to 30 March 1919. He was also Deputy of Chairman of Gosplan (the State Committee for Planning) of the USSR from 1926 to 1927 and People's Commissar of Public Healthcare of the RSFSR from 1930 to 1934. In those turbulent years, he was a supporter of Stalin's line against "deviations" by Leon Trotsky and Nikolai Bukharin.

In 1927, Vladimirsky became chairman of the Central Auditing Commission of the Communist Party,[1] a position he kept until his death. At time of his death, he was also a deputy to the Supreme Soviet. He was given a state funeral.[2]
