This Soviet and Russian actor is well known to our viewers. Evgeny Gerasimov, whose biography has developed quite successfully, today he still works a lot and enthusiastically in the movies.
The beginning of acting
Zhenya Gerasimov was born in an ordinary Moscow working-class family in February one thousand nine hundred and fifty-one. His dad worked as a cutter, and his mother ran a household. As Gerasimov himself recalls, it seems to him that he has always been an actor. In school years, he had already begun acting in films. A fourteen-year-old boy, like hundreds of his peers, passed a screen test in 1965 in the film "They Won't Pass." The boy played the role of Sanka Lymarev, who is going through a personal tragedy - engineer Hans Müller comes to their house, in whom his mother falls in love. He emigrated to the USSR from Austria.
A year later, Eugene starred in the film "The Man I Love." He perfectly played the main role of the teenager Rodka. It would seem that Evgeny Gerasimov, whose biography was already predetermined, would not have difficulty choosing a profession. However, a problem nevertheless arose. It should be noted that Eugene studied well in a mathematical school. After graduating from it in 1968, he planned to submit documents to a technical university. But still outweighed the love of cinema. Therefore, Yevgeny Gerasimov became a student at the Shchukin Theater School, the acting department. He ended up in the workshop of a great master - A. Borisov.
Start of work
In 1972, after graduating from college, Yevgeny Gerasimov was enrolled in the troupe of the Mayakovsky Theater. In this team, he successfully worked until 1980.
Movie work
In the seventies and eighties, Gerasimov worked a lot in cinema. He became especially popular after working in the popular films “Petrovka, 38” and “Ogarev, 6”, based on the novels of Julian Semenov. After these films, many directors began to offer the young actor the role of "cool" guys. I must say that Evgeny Gerasimov is a sports man, he has categories in several sports. Therefore, quite often he performed complex tricks himself, without resorting to the services of stuntmen.
Director's Experience
In 1981, Evgeny Gerasimov successfully graduated from directing courses. He was lucky to study in the workshop of Eldar Ryazanov and George Danelia. It is quite natural that the comedy “Very Important Person” became his debut in a new quality. In the nineteen eighty-seventh year, Gerasimov directed the drama "The Fun of the Young" according to the script by V. Merezhko . This picture received a great response in the audience. In it, Evgeny Gerasimov tried to raise the issue of the lack of spirituality of the young generation.
Gerasimov’s activities as a director never went unnoticed. Remember the comedy “Don't Go, Girls, Marry” or the drama “A Trip to Wiesbaden”. You should not think that during this period he left his main profession. Actor Evgeny Gerasimov, whose biography was inextricably linked with the cinema, continued to act. At this time, quite prominent roles appeared in the films “The End of Operation Resident,” “Five Minutes of Fear,” “The Bartender from the Golden Anchor.” In the early nineties Gerasimov became interested in historical cinema - he directed the films “Richard the Lionheart” and “Knight Kenneth”. In them, he played the role of Conrad.

Since 1994, Gerasimov begins to conduct his own television programs - "Kinescope", "Parade of Festivals", "Parade of Stars".
Social activity
In 2001, Evgeny Gerasimov was elected a deputy of the Moscow City Duma. He holds the post of deputy chairman of the commission on social policy, becomes a member of several commissions: on science and technology, on health care, on ethics, on culture.
Evgeny Gerasimov: biography, family
I must say that the actor belongs to that rather small group of representatives of the domestic show business, whose life has developed in all directions. Evgeny Gerasimov, whose personal life was successful, in the mid-seventies married a student of the Faculty of Philology of Mary.
They met in the company of friends. Their romance lasted a very long time - Eugene could not make an offer to his beloved. At that time he was already a very famous actor, he lived in a frantic rhythm. He doubted for a long time whether he would be able to take on more family chores.
In 1977, a girl was born in the family. The daughter was named Olya. In 1883, the son of Volodya was born.
