Kim Yaroshevskaya (Russian: Ким Ярошевская) is a Russia-born Québec actress and screenwriter renowned for her storytelling. She was awarded the title of Member of the Order of Canada for her services to performing arts.

She created and performed the character of Fanfreluche and wrote the television series based around her.

De 1968 à 1971, elle a écrit le scénario et joué le rôle d'une poupée géante, assise sur une grande chaise avec un immense livre de contes, qui intervenait dans les histoires. L'aventure de Fanfreluche s'est toutefois terminée après 36 épisodes. «Radio-Canada n'a pas voulu que je signe la réalisation de mon œuvre. Avoir su, j'aurais continué encore une année, car je ne me suis jamais autant amusé», révèle Mme Yaroshevskaya avec le recul.[1]

She is also famous for her portrayal of Grand-mère on the cult children's television show Passe-Partout.
