Are you as fed up as I am with all the negative news pertaining to Immigrants? Well let me tell you people, Anastasia Goroshkova’s backstory is just as riveting as her current success story! Amongst many momentous updates and achievements in Anastasia’s ever-inspiring journey is now news of collaboration with international publishers as well as the interest of a member of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association in the concept of Anastasia’s second book! The laundry list of yumminess in this woman’s incredible journey is simply remarkable this week on C-Suite Radio/The C-Suite Network! Anastasia’s story is relatable to millions of people and immigrants in Canada and worldwide.

Anastasia Goroshkova was born in 1990 in Yekaterinburg, Russia, one year before the USSR collapsed. She has many historical ties to Russia. Her ancestors were from St. Petersburg; their story reminiscent of Boris Pasternak’s novel “Doctor Zhivago”. Her Godmother is a Romanov, currently 92, and exhibiting art in many of Russia’s museums – most recently at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow.  Anastasia’s passion for writing was inspired by a huge home library, containing the best of Russian and world literature. She remembers visiting orphanages when she was small, tagging along with her mother who interpreted to American adoptive parents. At that time orphanages in Russia hosted 3 million children. But few got lucky. Anastasia’s childhood impressions contributed to her desire to give back through humanitarian initiatives and to become a writer. Now, Anastasia is a staff reporter for Corriere Canadese, the only daily Italian-English newspaper in Canada (founded 1954) whose publisher, Joe Volpe, is a former minister of immigration in Canada. Corriere Canadese has applied for a National News Licence. Anastasia has been invited to become a screenwriter and host (covering culture) for the potential TV channel launching in 2019 or the online media channel should Corriere Canadese fail to secure the licence at the end of November. Anastasia is a reporter for Noviy Svet (New World) a top literary journal of the Russian community which features Russian writers living in Russia and abroad. Alena Joukova – the cofounder and editor of Noviy Svet, is a well-known contemporary Russian author, involved in many literary initiatives of the Russian community in Canada. Lyudmila Ulitskaya, Austrian State Prize for European Literature Winner, debuted in Noviy Svet as a poet. Last month, Anastasia attended the Frankfurt Book Fair, on behalf of Corriere Canadese and Noviy Svet, conducting over 30 interviews with representatives of Italian, Russian, and American publishing and media. She will be attending the Frankfurt Book Fair again in 2020, when Canada is guest of honor. The interviews will be featured in the upcoming issues of Corriere Canadese, on the Corriere Canadese website, and in the Noviy Svet literary journal. Anastasia is starting collaboration with Annemarie O’Brien, an instructor at Stanford University and a Knopf, Random House author (“Lara’s Gift” – a novel about pre-revolutionary Russia).  Their book will be a POV of the American and Russian perspective of 1990s-2000s Russia. Anastasia has written 2 novels – a literary fiction and a historical fiction which are currently requested for review by several publishing houses, including HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, and Grove/Atlantic, NYC. The concept of her second novel has caught the interest of a member of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

In addition to writing, Anastasia merges creativity with business at a global level as Chief Communications Officer of Semper8 Capital – an advisory and investment firm founded by her brother, an HBS alumnus. Another successful chapter in her story of turbulent immigration…
