Biography

She received the Moscow Prize in the field of journalism in 2010 (along with Matvey Ganapolsky).[2]

On 23 October 2017, a man with a knife forced his entry into the building of the Echo of Moscow radio station and wounded Felgenhauer in the neck. The attacker was a native of Georgia, Boris Grits, a 48-year-old with dual Russian and Israeli citizenship.[4] A report on Russian television during the month accused the radio station, and Felgenhauer directly, of working to benefit foreign interests in Russia. Police treated the attack as an attempted murder.[5][4]

In December 2018, she was included in Time's Person of the Year 2018, as one of The Guardians, a collection of journalists from around the world in their fight for the War on Truth.[7]

She left Russia and moved to Vilnius in 2022.[8] Since August of the same year, she has been a co-host (with Alexander Plyushchev) of DW News, a daily program on Deutsche Welle's Russian-language YouTube channel.[9]
