The bright character actress Nina Kornienko made a good career in the theater, but in the cinema she was not very in demand. She regrets the unplayed roles, although her track record is quite worthy. Let's talk about how the creative path of the actress developed, about her work and personal life.

Childhood

Nina Kornienko was born in the small town of Solikamsk, in the Perm Territory on January 11, 1943. Despite the fact that the girl's childhood fell on difficult years, she always dreamed of being an actress. Since childhood, Nina believed in her calling. Acting was in her blood, although none of her relatives had anything to do with the theater. After school, Nina Kornienko, whose biography was associated with acting from an early age, gets a job at the Perm Theater. Then there were no such strict requirements for actors and it was possible to get on stage without education. But Nina understood that she lacked skills and knowledge.

Education

After some time working in the provincial theater, Nina Kornienko was convinced of the correct choice of her professionalpaths. And she decided to go to Moscow, to enter the theater institute. She was able to enter one of the best schools in the country - the Moscow Art Theater. Tatyana Itsykovich (Vasilyeva), Alexey Levinsky (son of the director of the Art Theater), Anatoly Vasilyev, Galina Besedina, beauty Ekaterina Gradova studied on her course. But Nina did not get lost in their background, she managed to reveal her talent, and this helped her find her way.

Work in the theater

Even in the studio, Nina Kornienko was noticed by Valentin Pluchek. He brought her to his theater, to the famous Theater of Satire, in which the actress works to this day. The first role - Suzanne in The Marriage of Figaro - brought Nina instant and real fame. There were queues for performances with her participation, she became the star of the troupe, and she got along easily with the team. Although the troupe in Satire was more than stellar.

Among the outstanding performances in the theater with her participation are the productions of "Awake and Sing", "Tartuffe", "Threepenny Opera", "Running". Her fame was increased by television filming of performances. However, for an actress of such talent, Kornienko still played quite a few roles, in total she has a little more than 10 productions. True, some went for many years in a row, but still this did not allow Nina to fully reveal herself as an actress. People close to the theater say that Kornienko's heightened sense of justice was the reason for such low employment. She constantly stood up for someone at meetings of the troupe, asked for others. And the directors bypassed her in the distribution of roles, but she does not know how to bother for herself. When camethe age of maturity, the roles became even smaller. But even today Kornienko plays in two performances: "The Hostess of the Hotel" and "Homo Erectus". She is not offended by fate, although the chief director of the theater A. Shirvindt admits that he feels guilty before the actress.

Working in movies

But Nina Kornienko was less lucky with cinema than with the theater. She started out pretty well, in the 70s she released about one film a year, albeit with small roles. In 1979, she played a bright, albeit small role with Stanislav Govorukhin in the TV series The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed. But after that, a flood of proposals did not follow. Kornienko rarely starred, although even now she is sometimes invited to the set. So, in 2011, she appeared in three tapes at once. In total, the filmography of the actress includes 20 films, which is negligible for an actress of such talent.

Private life

Actress Nina Kornienko, whose personal life has always been surrounded by mystery, is happily married. She married rather late. In the theatrical environment, they say that the reason for this was Nina's love for Andrei Mironov. But the actress herself never talks about this topic, and no one can say if she had an affair with a popular favorite. In the late 70s, Nina met her fate in the person of cameraman Lev Streltsin. The couple are still together. In 1983, their daughter Alexandra was born, who followed in her mother's footsteps and today works at the Theater. E. Vakhtangov.
