Biography

[edit]

Gadyuchkina was born on 5 December 1910 in Norskoye, Yaroslavl Oblast, Russian Empire (now Russia) to Mikhail Krotov and his wife Yevlampiya Krotova. At the age of 15, she found a job at the local spinning factory called Red Pass, dedicating her entire career to the establishment. She initially served as an auxiliary worker, progressing to the roles of spinner and assistant foreman. Eventually, she became a production leader, for which she once received a gramophone as a gift from her superiors.[2]
