Excerpt: Boris Abramovich Berezovsky (Russian: ) is a Russian businessman, mathematician, member of Russian Academy of Sciences and a former Russian official and MP. He is also known as a Russian oligarch, controversial politician and power broker during the presidency of Boris Yeltsin in the 1990s. Berezovsky was at the height of his power in the later Yeltsin years, when he was deputy secretary of Russia's security council.

Berezovsky was born in 1946 in Moscow to Abram Markovich Berezovsky, a Jewish civil engineer in construction works, and his wife Anna Gelman. He studied forestry and then applied mathematics, receiving his doctorate in 1983.
