Biography
Anastasia Valentinovna was born in the capital in 1943. Almost nothing is known about her parents in wide circles. The family had two more daughters, but the relationship between them did not develop in the best way. After the death of the mother, the sisters stopped communicating.
In 1960, she graduated from a comprehensive school and entered the Moscow Art Theater School. The young actress studied with Vladimir Menshov, Vera Alentova and Irina Miroshnichenko.
In the 1960s, Voznesenskaya was invited to join the Sovremennik troupe. Oleg Efremov could not remain indifferent in front of a charming and promising graduate. But the young actress wanted to work only with her husband, Andrey Myagkov. The artistic director of the theater was forced to meet her, which he did not regret.
Anastasia Valentinovna quickly gained popularity on the big stage. She played in the plays of Alexander Vampilov, Masha in The Seagull, as well as the famous Babakina in Ivanovo.
Already in the 80s, Anastasia Voznesenskaya became one of the main actresses in the troupe of the Moscow Art Theater. She mainly performed everyday and satirical roles, from which the audience was delighted. After each premiere, theater critics wrote laudatory reviews in her address, amazed at how the actress fills the image with psychological certainty.
In cinema, Voznesenskaya did not make her debut as successfully as on the stage. Viewers could see the young actress in the short films "Journey" and "First Love". A year after filming, she received an offer from director Yevgeny Tashkov to play the main role in the military drama "Whirlwind". She tried on the image of the radio operator Ani, who won the hearts of the audience.
At this time, Voznesenskaya was at the peak of its popularity. Taking advantage of her position, she tried to achieve joint work with Myagkov. This continued until the film "Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!" Appeared on the screens. Then the husband began to bother about roles for his wife. This is how Voznesenskaya got a role in Ryazanov's comedy Garage. There she performed the director of the market Kushakova.
Gradually, the popularity of the actress began to fade. She was no longer so in demand either in the theater or in the cinema. This is what triggered psychological problems and moral dissatisfaction. Out of despair, Voznesenskaya fell into alcohol addiction. Only the support of a loving and understanding husband helped her get out of her.
Since 1993, Anastasia Valerievna has not acted in films. Her theatrical repertoire was limited to one role of a former ballerina in the production of "Retro", directed by Andrei Myagkov.
Personal life
Anastasia Voznesenskaya met her future husband while studying at the Moscow Art Theater School. The young man was somewhat older than his fellow students, because at that time he had already received a diploma in the specialty of a chemical technologist. He immediately drew attention to the charming Muscovite, and a whirlwind romance broke out between them. The students got married without waiting for graduation.
In 2013, the famous couple celebrated the 50th anniversary of their marriage.
