Smargon (née Gurvich) Frida Zalmanovna (14 June 1935, Dvinsk [now Daugavpils]) — technician-technologist.

Frida Smargon was born into the family of Zalman Yakovlevich Gurvich (1906, Dvinsk — killed in 1944 during the Second World War) and Tsira Movshevna Gurvich (née Magid) (1908, Dvinsk — 1986, Daugavpils).

She completed 7 classes at Daugavpils Secondary School No. 10 (1942–1949), then studied at Daugavpils Evening School No. 1 (1950–1953). From 1969 to 1972, she graduated from the correspondence department of the Moscow Polygraphic Technical School.

From 1950 to 1985, she worked at the Daugavpils printing house as a typesetter, master, and engineer-technologist. From 1985, she was retired.

She married Yakov Nisonovich Smargon (1927, Dvinsk). Their children are Zelda Yakovlevna Halperina (née Smargon) (1956, Daugavpils) and Alexander Yakovlevich Smargon (1962, Daugavpils).

In 1990, Frida Smargon received permission to emigrate to Israel, where her daughter had lived since 1979, and her husband’s brother, Israel Nisonovich Smargon (1925, Dvinsk), since 1971.
