Lazar Kaganovich[a] (22 November [O.S. 10 November] 1893 – 25 July 1991) was a Soviet communist official and Bolshevik revolutionary. He held various posts between 1930–1957, including Second Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Deputy Premier of the Soviet Union, and First Deputy Premier of the Soviet Union.
In 1956–1957, Kaganovich and several other members of the CPSU Politburo would briefly remove the revisionist Nikita Khrushchev from power and reinstate Marxist–Leninist governance. However, Khrushchev would execute a military putsch and remove Kaganovich and other members of the so-called "Anti-Party Group" from leadership. At the time of his death on 25 July, 1991, he was the last surviving Old Bolshevik.
