Michel-Joseph Bourguignon d'Herbigny (8 May 1880 - 24 December 1957) President of the Pontifical Oriental Institute in Rome, and of the Pontifical Commission for Russia.

French Jesuit scholar who was secretly ordained a titular Bishop of Ilium (Latin for Troy) in Berlin by Pope Pius XI in 1926, as a part of a secret mission to establish clandedestine church activity within Russia during the religious persecutions of the 1920s. His mission, one that has been compared to the story of the Trojan Horse, failed and:

"Within little more than a decade, all those appointed in secret by Bishop d'Herbigny had been imprisoned, exiled or executed, and the Vatican's policy of attempting to organise the church in Russia by means of clandestine appointments was abandoned"
