Biography

edit

Oľga Glosíková was born on 24 March 1953 in the village of Kamienka in the Humenné District to a Ruthenian family. She studied philosophy and history at the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University. After graduation she worked as a high school teacher in Svit and later as an assistant professor at the University of Prešov.[1]

In the 1990 Czechoslovak parliamentary election, Glosíková ran in the East Slovakia election district on the list of the Communist Party of Slovakia, which was at the time still affiliated with the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. She did not win her mandate outright but became a deputy as a replacement in 1991, when the Slovak part of communist party already split from the Czechoslovak party and rebranded itself as the Party of the Democratic Left, which she represented in the parliament.[2]

After the end of her parliamentary mandate, Glosíková returned to the academia. In 2005 she was awarded a doctorate by the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus.[3] In 2007, she became the founding director of a museum of the Ruthenian culture in Prešov.[1]
