Silva Kaputikyan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sirvard Barunaki "Silva" Kaputikyan (Սիլվա Կապուտիկյան in Armenian) (20 January 1919 - 25 August 2006) was a 20th century Armenian writer and poet.
She appeared as herself in the 1992 documentary Parajanov: The Last Spring, about Sergei Parajanov, a legendary film-maker of Armenian descent who was persecuted by Soviet authorities.
Some Azeris claim that she supported Armenian "aggression" regarding the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region (see [1], [2]).
She lived in Yerevan, the Armenian capital, her entire life, and died there of a stroke, aged 87.
