Fr. '''Vladimir Vladimirovich Alexandrof ''' ({{lang-ru|Владимир Владимирович Александров}}; Jul. 14, 1871 - May 20, 1945) (also spelled '''Alexander''', '''Alexandroff''', '''Aleksandrov''', and '''Alexandrov''') was an early priest to the Russian Orthodox mission in North America. He was one of the first priests to visit Western Canada, and travelled extensively around the western United States, particularly to Montana. His life was filled with scandal and controversy, especially through his tenure at [[Holy_Trinity_Orthodox_Cathedral_(Chicago, Illinois)|Holy Trinity Cathedral in Chicago]] (which created the schism that led to the founding of [[St. George Cathedral (Chicago, Illinois)|St. George Cathedral]] there), the family scandal that marred his tenure at [[Holy Trinity Cathedral (San Francisco), California|Holy Trinity Cathedral in San Francisco]], his return to Russia and embrace of the Soviet backed [[Living Church]], lawsuits in Seattle he filed over church property, as well as his eventual departure from the Orthodox Church into the Roman Catholic Church.
