Mikhail Zygar is a Russian journalist, author, and filmmaker born on January 31, 1981, in Moscow. He is notably recognized as the founding editor of Dozhd, Russia's only independent television channel from 2010 to 2015, which provided an alternative to Kremlin-controlled media. Zygar's coverage of politically sensitive issues such as the 2011-2012 Moscow protests and the conflict in Ukraine was significantly distinct from that of state television. He is also the author of the bestselling book 'All the Kremlin's Men', which chronicles Russia under Putin through interviews with insiders.
