Svetlana Lokhova is a By-Fellow of Churchill College, University of Cambridge. She holds an MPhil and BA (Hons) in History from University of Cambridge. Svetlana's first book, 'The Spy Who Changed History' is an "ASTONISHING BOOK ABOUT ASTONISHING PEOPLE". "The story of how one of America’s top universities “gave” Soviet spies the means to build a superpower ...'beggars belief'. The book gained a 5-star review by the Daily Telegraph. The book is 'SUPERBLY RESEARCHED" and "GROUNDBREAKING". The "most remarkable achievement is to shift our perception of the centre of 20th-century espionage from Cambridge, England, to Cambridge, Massachusetts. ​ Svetlana’s interest in espionage history began whilst studying History at Cambridge University. Her Master's dissertation remains the definitive account of the founder of the Soviet intelligence service, Felix Dzerzhinsky. ​ She is responsible for a number of the most important archival discoveries made in recent years. Her revelations have generated substantial press coverage across the world. Svetlana identified the Cambridge ‘Sixth Man’ Cedric Belfrage featured on the BBC Television News and Radio. The story of Britain’s ‘Hollywood Spy’ was told on a specially commissioned programme. ​ From her work on the ‘Mitrokhin Archive’, she found the identity of ‘MIKE’, a US Cold War KGB recruit, and revealed the KGB’s plans to recruit President Nixon’s chief physician. She has spoken about the Mitrokhin archive on US Public Service Radio, Radio Free Europe, the BBC and ABC (Australia). ​ She was until recently a Fellow of the Cambridge [UK] Security Initiative jointly chaired by the former head of MI6, Sir Richard Dearlove, and Professor Christopher Andrew, former Official Historian of the MI5. ​
