Alla Konstantinovna Tarasova (1898-1973) was a leading actress of Konstantin Stanislavsky's Moscow Art Theatre from the late 1920s onward. A title role in Anna Karenina (1937) was her most resounding success. She appeared to mixed reviews as Katerina in the screen version of Ostrovsky's Thunderstorm (1934) and as Catherine I in the movie Peter the Great (1937). Tarasova toured London and United States in 1922-24 to much international acclaim. She was awarded five USSR State Prizes and two Orders of Lenin. Shortly before her death, Tarasova was declared a Hero of Socialist Labour.
