(9 July 1917 -- ??)
Mae Strelkov "was born in China. Her parents were English missionaries. She married Vadim Strelkov who was Russian-born and they moved to Chile, then Buenos Aires, and then on to a ranch in Jujuy. She was so well loved in fandom that Joan Bowers and Susan Wood started a fan fund [the Mae Strelkov's Friends Fund] for her, and in 1974 she attended the worldcon Discon II, DeepSouthCon and traveled the U.S. for two months."
She "was an Argentinian grandmother and lived on a ranch in the middle of nowhere, wrote loving letters and locs, and printed highly colorful hecto paintings."
References to Mae Strelkov appear now and again in the late Ned Brooks's zines such as It Goes on the Shelf.
