Yefim Gordon was born in 1950 in Vilnius, Lithuania, and graduated
from the Kaunas Polytechnical Institute in 1972 as an
engineer/electronics designer. He has been a resident of Moscow
since 1973, when, as a hobby, he started collecting photographs and
books on the history of Soviet aviation.
This has now developed into a major archive. Since the 1980s he has
been a professional aviation journalist and writer, with over 80
books published on Soviet/Russian aviation in Russian, English,
Polish and Czech, as well as close to 120 magazine features and
photo reports. He is also an accomplished photographer, with
countless photos published in the western press; the current
edition of Jane's All the World's Aircraft features more than 50 of
his photographs.
