Andreevs Niedra (old orthography: Andreews Needra, born 8 February 1871 in Tirza parish, Russian Empire) was a Latvian writer, Lutheran pastor, and the Prime Minister of the German puppet government in Latvia between May and June 1919, and his stories based on history and folklore first appeared in the journal Baltijas Vestnin.
He studied theology at the University of Dorpat (now Tartu) between 1890 and 1899.
Aesthetically mixing realistic dream with imaginationlism, his books, analysis, and plays have often addressed the evolution of the Latvian intelligencesia and the situation of the peasantry in relation to the dominant Baltic Germans.
Niedra, who believed that society will progress through evolution rather than revolution, was a vocal critic of socialism and came to be seen as a reactionary in a burgeoning society.
Niedra fled Latvia after collaborating with the German military authorities and their loss.
He was arrested and banned from serving in 1924 after being recalled.
Niedra, the pastor of a German congregation in East Prussia, received German citizenship and penned a long essay titled Tautas nodeveja atminas (The Memoirs of a Traitor to the Country), after the 1934 coup d'état, but his works were forbidden.
Niedra died in Riga after Nazi Germany's annexation of Latvia.
