Julia Vladimirovna Menshova, a successful creative producer of several programs on Russian television, a TV presenter with an appearance that meets Hollywood standards, was born in 1969 in the star family of the Menshovs, the famous director Vladimir Menshov and the popular actress Vera Alentova. The long-awaited child has become the center of attention for her parents for many years, the girl grew up in an atmosphere of love and even some worship. However, this did not prevent the People’s Artist of the Russian Federation Vladimir Menshov and his wife, People’s Artist of the Russian Federation Vera Alentova, from properly educating the future theater and film artist.
As often happens in the art world, the biography of Menshova Julia began with childhood impressions that smoothly turn into the category of criteria for adult life. Yulia was 10 years old when the movie “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears” was released. The girl understood that behind the incredible popularity of the picture was the dedication of her parents, sleepless nights, disputes and disagreements. She felt a sense of pride for her father, director, and for her mother, who played Catherine, the heroine of the film. So, the biography of Menshova Julia, her next page, according to all the laws of the genre, was to continue within the walls of the theater institute. It seemed that the future of Yuleka Menshova was determined, and she would follow in the footsteps of her parents. However, the child had his own hobbies, Julia loved literature, and especially poetry.
After graduating from school, the girl intended to enter the Literary Institute, but, as it turned out, publications were needed for this. It was necessary to refuse a literary career, and therefore the biography of Menshova Julia does not contain information about her literary activity. Julia Vladimirovna became a student at the Moscow Art Theater School, which she successfully completed in 1990. In the same year, she was admitted to the Chekhov Moscow Art Theater under the direction of Oleg Efremov. Around the same time, the young actress began to receive invitations from filmmakers. During the period of work in the theater (from 1990 to 1994), Julia Menshova starred in several films, including The Sukhovo-Kobylin Case, When the Saints March, Unexpected Visits, and others.
And so, in 1994, Julia, in her own words, finally found herself in television. And immediately the biography of Menshova Julia was replenished with new pages. Work began on Russian television, which at that time was developing at a rapid pace. Julia's theater education helped her master the television
professions of an editor and TV presenter, producer and manager. There was a lot of work, but Menshova successfully coped with the tasks. Her first television test was the My Cinema program, which aired on TV-6. Then a very female program “I myself” was aired. In this program, Julia Menshova, whose biography could become an example to follow for any Russian woman, expanded the responsibilities of a TV presenter, taking an active part in
editing texts. And after a while she started producing.
An intelligent leader in a matter of months conquered a multimillion-dollar audience. Of the recent television projects with Menshova’s participation, the Teach Me to Live program can be noted. In addition to creative participation in television projects, Julia is actively engaged in her promotion in the administrative field. She is a co-producer of several programs, participates in the work of the director’s corps, and leads her own production center. However, all of the above applies to Julia, the administrator, and Julia Menshova, the actress, from time to time accepts invitations regarding participation in TV shows. For example, in the multi-part film
"Balzac Age, or All Men Are His ..." she happened to play the role of Vera, a professional psychologist who, in the story of the series, herself needs psychological help. And the role of Marina Mukhina in the comedy "Strong marriage" was fertile ground for the realization of the acting talent of Julia Menshova.
