Jackson Rogers Tate (15 October 1898 – 19 July 1978) was a United States Navy admiral who began his naval career as an enlisted man and became one of the first naval aviators.
He fathered a child, Victoria, during a brief love affair with Russian actress Zoya Fyodorova near the end of World War II, but did not know of her birth until 1973.
He waged a successful two-year diplomatic quest for her to be allowed to visit him in the United States, finally meeting her in 1975.
