Tetyana Mykhailivna Kardynalovska (1899, Kiev — 27 June 1993, Ann Arbor), Ukrainian interpreter, pedagogue, memoir writer.
Kardynalovska was daughter of a Russian general of artillery Mykhailo Hryhorovych Kardynalovsky. She also was an older sister of a Ukrainian architect Yelyzaveta Kardynalovska. Tetyana finished one of the Kiev city gymnasiums and studied at the Engineering Department of the Kiev Polytechnic Institute which she did not manage to finish due to the war with Russia. After finishing gymnasium she married Vsevolod Holubovych who at that time was a General Secretary as well as a deputy to the Russian Constituent Assembly. That marriage, however, did not last for long and in 1919 the couple petitioned for divorce. For some time Tetyana continued to live in Kamyanets-Podilsky, working for a local editorship of Chervony Shliakh headed by her former husband, Holubovych.
Tetyana later married a former Ukrainian Socialist-Revolutionary and writer Serhiy Pylypenko who in 1919 joined the ranks of Bolsheviks and was a Combrig of the Red Army. Pylypenko as numerous other Ukrainian nationals was murdered by the Stalinist regime on March 1934 who recognized him as a counterrevolutionary. After that Tetyana continued to live as a widow of the former enemy of the people in Ukraine until the World War II when in 1943 she was deported to Austria for work. After escaping from a labor camp she lived in the neighboring Italy, then Great Britain. After the war she emigrated to the United States as returning home was not an option.
