Timeline
She has been married to Igor Mintusov, a Russian political analyst/consultant, since January 2002, and they have one daughter, Yelizaveta-Anna Mintusova (born October 25, 2002). The family primarily resides in Moscow but also own a home in New York City, as Khanga has dual citizenship through her American grandparents. While in America, Khanga worships at the West Angeles Church of God in Christ.
Following graduation from Moscow State University, Khanga was hired by the Moscow News and became the first Russian journalist to participate in a foreign-exchange program with the American-based Christian Science Monitor in 1988. Through this exchange, Khanga became well known in the United States for being a black woman from Russia, with many Americans being shocked that black people even lived in Russia. Khanga was the moderator of the Russian television talk show The Domino Effect ([1]). She also moderated Russia's first talk show about sex, called About That (Russian: Про это , Pro Eto), from 1997 to 2000, which tackled such matters as HIV/AIDS, homosexuality and workplace sexual harassment; she later commented that the effect of the show "was like a bomb went off".
An only child, Yelena Abdulayevna Khanga was born in Moscow to Abdullah Kassim, the first vice-president of Zanzibar (assassinated in 1967) and Lily Khanga (pronounced Han-ga), a historian and educator (née Golden), the daughter of an interracial couple from New York City. Yelena's American maternal grandmother was of Polish-Jewish descent and worked as a Russian-English translator for a Soviet news agency. She also claimed to be distant relative to well-known violinist Arnold Steinhardt (her grandmother was the cousin of his father). Her African-American maternal grandfather, Oliver Golden, had a college degree in agronomy from the Tuskegee Institute but was unable to find any work in his field in the USA, and moved to the USSR (Uzbekistan) with his wife to develop the cotton industry there.
Yelena Abdulaevna Khanga (Russian: Еле́на Абдула́евна Ха́нга ), also transliterated as Elena Hanga (born May 1, 1962), is a Russian journalist who was raised in Moscow, USSR, and came to the United States in 1990 to write (with Susan Jacoby) Soul to Soul: The Story of a Black Russian American Family: 1865–1992. Khanga divides her time between New York City and Moscow.
