Chekov
Cherry Orchard author
Chekov typically refers to Anton Chekhov, the Russian playwright and short story writer whose works like *The Cherry Orchard* and *Uncle Vanya* defined modern drama through their subtle exploration of ordinary life and unfulfilled longing.
The alternate spelling appears frequently in English translations.
Chekov is also the name of the young navigator Pavel Chekov from *Star Trek*, a character introduced partly to acknowledge Soviet contributions to space exploration.
