Actress Lyudmila Artemyeva: the path to art
Lyudmila Artemyeva was born in 1963 in the city of Dessau, where she spent her first years of childhood, and where her father, Viktor Filippovich, served. Then he was sent to Ukraine, first to Uzhgorod, and then to Lvov. Only when Viktor Filippovich went on a well-deserved rest, the Artemiev family was able to forget about packing, suitcases and moving. The mother of the future actress, Maria Andreevna, was at first a singer, then went in for sports, was in the track and field athletics team of Ukraine. But because of the constant moving, I had to leave the sport and take care of the house.
Lyudmila also changed several schools. And everywhere teachers noted her temperament and artistry. The girl skillfully noticed features in facial expressions, behavior, gait and could perfectly parody acquaintances. Therefore, she was recommended to link her future profession with theatrical art. Having listened to the opinion of the teachers, the parents sent their daughter to the drama club, where Lyudmila quickly mastered the basics of acting. She also became very interested in music and decided to follow in her mother's footsteps. By that time, the Artemyevs lived in Leningrad. After graduating from school. Lyudmila applied to the Rimsky-Korsakov Leningrad Conservatory. After studying for a year at a music university, the girl realized that she was more drawn to the theatrical stage. I made a wish. And she left for Moscow to enter the famous "Pike".
All the examiners appreciated the bright talent of the young girl. Lyudmila entered the institute the first time and was enrolled in the course of Marina Ter-Zakharova, who would soon become Lyudmila's best friend. And she will be the only guest invited to Lyudmila's wedding.
At the university, Artemyeva was in good standing with the teachers. And classmates often asked the girl to work out with them. So Lyudmila met her future husband.
The first love of Lyudmila Artemyeva
Sergey Panferov, the future husband of Lyudmila Artemiev, was a classmate of the girl. Together they rehearsed scenes from Oblomov. At that time, Sergey graduated from a technical university in Tallinn, where he was from, and came to conquer Moscow. He won Lyudmila's heart in the first year. And by the end of the second year, he proposed to her. The girl, who has long been in love with Sergei, agreed.
Soon they played a wedding, to which the teacher Marina Ter-Zakharova was invited, who for a long time supported her talented pupil. In her third year, Lyudmila gave birth to a daughter, Ekaterina. And the spouses, who were getting closer and closer to graduating from the university, began to have everyday problems by that time. After graduation, they had to vacate a room in a hostel. Lyudmila upholstered the thresholds of various authorities in order to resolve the issue of housing. Sergei was in a creative search. And again Ter-Zakharova came to the rescue, knocking out a room for Lyudmila and Sergei in a communal apartment.
But her own housing did not bring happiness to Artemyeva. Sergei, who considered himself much more talented and more promising than Lyudmila, proudly bore the title of head of the family. The handsome man, confident in himself, considered himself a real artist. He was invited to the Central Children's Theater, then the Theater of Satire, the Theater on Malaya Bronnaya. Lyudmila was very proud of such a demand for her husband, who, despite his talent, brought home mere pennies. But he still believed that he was more important, more talented and more successful.
In the 90s, Panferov, unable to stay in one place, was left without work. Experiencing a creative crisis, he began to kiss the bottle more and more often. Later, friends will say that Sergei was broken by Moscow. Soon he turned into a real alcoholic, he was rarely sober, and almost all of Lyudmila's modest earnings went to him for a drink. Gradually, Lyudmila's feelings for her husband cooled. Tired of drunkenness and reproaches from her husband, the woman filed for divorce. Together with Panferov, Artemyeva lived for 15 years.
Late love
After the divorce, the creative career of Lyudmila Artemyeva went up. The actress decided to try her hand at television. First, she starred in an advertisement for mayonnaise, then played the main roles in the TV series "Taxi Driver" and "Matchmakers", thanks to which she gained fame and popularity. She seems to have forgotten about her personal life, love and female happiness.
She tries not to talk about her ex-husband and always, when giving interviews, tactfully bypasses this topic. She devoted herself entirely to her work. But on the set of the seventh season of "Matchmakers" Lyudmila Artemyeva announced that she was going on maternity leave. So colleagues learned about the new love of the artist, whose name she did not disclose to anyone.
