Antonina Riasanovsky (March 8, 1895 – February 1985) was a Russian-born writer who, under the pen name Nina Fedorova, wrote The Family, the tenth highest selling fiction book in the United States 1940.
The book won the 1940 $10,000 fiction novel prize from the Atlantic Monthly.
Born Antonina Fedorovna Podgorinova in Lokhvytsia, Russian Empire in 1895, she moved to Verkhneudinsk (now known as Ulan-Ude) after her father's death and mother's remarriage.
She left for Harbin in China shortly before the 1917 revolution, and married historian Valentin Riasanovsky in 1923.
She also translated her first two novels into Russian, and published a book of plays for children in 1964.
