Marko Cheremshyna
Marko Cheremshyna () (pen name of Ivan Semaniuk), (born 13 June 1874 in Kobaky, Galicia; died 25 April 1927 in Kobaky) was a Ukrainian writer of Hutsul background. Biography 

Cheremshyna was born into a poor peasant family in Kobaky. He earned a law degree from the University of Vienna in 1906 and maintained a law practice in Sniatyn. He started writing short stories around 1896 and published them in newspapers and journals. Because of his birth region, Cheremshyna is often placed together with Vasyl Stefanyk and Les Martovych in the so-called 'Pokutia triad.' He is known for his portrayals of Hutsul peasant life. His works incorporate the dialect and folk themes of his birthplace. He was fluent in 13 languages, and translated literature into Ukrainian from German, Czech, Polish and Hungarian. There is a museum of him in Sniatyn, Galicia where he is buried. References
