About Spartak Mishulin

Lived 1926 – 2005 (aged 78). Spartak Mishulin was a Russian actor, film actor, television actor and voice actor.

Spartak Vasilyevich Mishulin (; 22 October 1926 – 17 July 2005) was a Soviet actor and People's Artist of the RSFSR. He was best known for his roles as Sayid in White Sun of the Desert and the title character in the Soviet stage adaptation of the Swedish children's book series Karlsson-on-the-Roof (1971) at Moscow's famed Satire Theatre.

Biography Spartak Mishulin was born on October 22, 1926, in Moscow. Spartak from an early age was fascinated by the theater and dreamed of becoming an actor.

In 1937, Anna Mishulina was arrested as an enemy of the people and exiled to Tashkent, and Spartak remained in the care of his uncle Alexander Mishulin, who held the post of rector of the Academy of Social Sciences under the Central Committee of the Communist Party. After the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, the Mishulin family found themselves in evacuation in Dzerzhinsk.

In 1941, Spartak Mishulin entered the artillery school in Anzhero-Sudzhensk by mistake, he misunderstood its name which was a portmanteau word and thought that it was an acting school. After studying at the artillery school, he committed a misdemeanor for which he served a 1.5 year sentence. In the labor camp Spartak met his uncle's personal driver by chance, also a fellow convict. The driver was the head of the mill and took the young man as his subordinate water carrier. After a while he was caught bringing grain instead of water to the prisoners, thereby prolonging his term for another year and a half.

But even in the labor camp he did not cease to engage in amateur activities. Once he was noticed by a club manager and was invited to his village Brusovo Udomelsky District of the Kalinin region. For a while, Mishulin worked as a manager at the Brusovo club, and later in various provincial theaters. Afterwards his relatives found him.

In 1992, Aleksandr Shirvindt staged a performance in the theater according to his own scenario - benefit concert of Mishulin "Spartak" (Mishulin) - "Spectator" (national team). He was buried at the Vagankovo cemetery.

Family His wife is Valentina Konstantinovna Mishulina (Kazakova) (born 1945). Daughter Karina Spartakovna Mishulina (born 1979).
