Klochko Diana Yakovlevna (1937)

Klochko (née Ioffe) Diana Yakovlevna (b. January 12, 1937, Riga) — ballerina.

During World War II, Diana Klochko was evacuated to Tashkent.

After graduating from the Riga Choreographic School, she performed as a ballet dancer at: the Latvian Opera and Ballet Theatre in Riga (1954–62), the Lviv Opera and Ballet Theatre (1962–64), and again at the Riga Opera and Ballet Theatre (1964–67).

Her first husband (married in Riga in 1958) was Moses (Maurice) Jacob Cohen (b. 1925, Cairo — ?, ?), a British subject. It appears that Diana was denied permission to emigrate to join her husband in the United Kingdom.

In 1963, she married Iosif Iosifovich Klochko (b. 1938, Lviv).

Their son, Eduard Iosifovich Klochko, was born in 1963 in Lviv.

Her father, Yakov Isaakovich Ioffe (b. 1905, Sloka – d. 194?, ?), perished in the Holocaust.

Her mother, Lea Faivishevna Traigaisen (née Kaplan) (b. January 29, 1913, Riga), survived.

Her aunt, Pera Isaakovna Meier, emigrated to England in 1939.
