Mark Moiseevich Stolberg was a Russian chess master.
Stolberg won the Rostov-on-Don City championship in 1938. The next year he took second in a Soviet master candidates tournament. In 1940, Stolberg shared first with Eduard Gerstenfeld in Kiev, and tied for 13-16th in Moscow. In June 1941, Stolberg was in fourth place in Rostov-on-Don, when the German attack on the Soviet Union interrupted the event.
Stolberg entered the Soviet Army at the end of 1940, and disappeared on 16 May 1942 in the battle of Malaya Zemlya, a part of Novorossiysk on Russia's Black Sea coast against German troops.
