Kira Valentinovna Ivanova (Russian: Кира Валентиновна Иванова; 10 January 1963 – 18 December 2001)[2] was a Soviet Russian figure skater. She was the 1984 Olympic bronze medalist, the 1985 World silver medalist, a four-time European silver medalist, and a three-time Soviet national champion.

She was not sent to the 1980 World Championships, however, she received more assignments after Elena Vodorezova, a Soviet champion who had placed 6th at 1978 Worlds, was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis. At the 1981 World Championships, Ivanova placed 13th in the compulsory figures, 4th in the short program, and 13th in the free skate, and finished 12th overall. She won the Moscow News Trophy in the fall of 1982, completing a clean triple-triple jump combination.
The Soviet skating federation allegedly banned Ivanova from competing outside the Soviet Union for two years, beginning in the fall of 1981, for public conflicts with her coach that interfered with her training.[citation needed] She returned to international competition in time for the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, where she won bronze.[3] She was the only ladies' single skater to win an Olympic medal for the Soviet Union, the Unified Team or Russia until Irina Slutskaya won silver in 2002.
At the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Ivanova finished first in the compulsory figures ahead of the defending Olympic champion Katarina Witt, but placed 10th and 9th in the short and free programs and finished 7th overall. After ending her amateur career, she skated in Igor Bobrin's Theater of Ice Miniatures.[3] In 1991, Ivanova began coaching children at Moscow's Dynamo arena but quit in August 2001.[5]
Personal life and death
Neighbors found Ivanova's body, covered in stab wounds, in her apartment on 21 December 2001.[5][6] She had lived in the northern outskirts of Moscow in Otradnoye District.
After her death, the chairman of the Russian Figure Skating Federation, Valentin Piseev, told the press that Ivanova had been suffering from alcoholism, stating "Ivanova became addicted to alcohol in recent years and underwent several treatments, but with no visible results."[5]
