Arina Sharapova Ayanovna

Arina Sharapova was born May 30, 1961. Under the sign of Gemini. Father - an engineer, mother - a teacher. When mum and dad decided to register her Arina in the registry office of long argued that such a name does not exist: they say, Irina record. I had to pay a fine, but in its present.

Arina loves cats, Moscow and writer Bulgakov. As a child, wanted to become a schoolteacher. In my youth ran to the cemetery and shot down with a slingshot lights on plots. In those days she was not elegant and could umyat in one sitting kilogram of truffles. Rolls-cakes loves still. Diet is not in compliance. Favorite food - fried potatoes with meat. Favorite drink - gin and tonic.

. She has two degrees: in 1984 graduated from the Philosophy Faculty of Moscow State University, specializing in sociology, then - translation department of the Moscow State Pedagogical Institute of Foreign Languages
. Maurice Thorez.

In 17 years, Arina got a job working in the library. Her first husband, journalist Sergei Alliluyev (he is a distant relative of Stalin's wife), met at work. And at 19 has already become a mother. She worked at the Institute of Biology of the USSR, then worked as Photo Editor in chief editors of periodicals, special correspondent for editorial video APN.

Telekareru started on RTR. And until now, with adoration said on Oleg Poptsov, who offered her a seat of government correspondent. Journalist happily recalls accompanied by a then-premier Gaidar: that the plane broke, the storm, the hurricane - the romance, in short.

From 1991 to October 1995 - reporter, commentator, a leading news program "Vesti" (VGTRK). Was also the leading program "60 Minutes".

At this point, and have chosen its ORTshniki. According Arina, lured a long time - the efforts of "form", Ernst and most Berezovsky. Whole team in general. Resisted for nearly a year, when decided, and told the RTR, launched unprecedented: "Lysenko stamped. Poptsov shouted resignations had not signed within a month ". (A similar story befell a little earlier, when a valuable employee as much per month is not released to television from the NPA.)

But passions subsided, Sharapova moved, where would. I found that doing it at the first channel of nothing. Six months later became the flagship program "Time", in which the air for some reason felt uncomfortable. Spectators meanwhile were sent abusive letters to the editor - not soon reconciled themselves. But put up the same with the inevitable. Accustomed and Arina. But another attack - 30 August 98-th year in six in the evening Sergei Dorenko came and said: "Time" from this day will lead me ". Sharapova mused: whether for a place under the sun to fight, then I change the type of activity? September 1, 1998, she filed a petition for dismissal of the Directorate of Information Programs ORT. From September 1998 - Browser editorial art broadcasting AO "ORT". Since 1998 - freelance TV worker "TELEMOST".

"Just recently I realized that I wanted to work in charitable organizations. Or create your own. I think the time is coming when you need to do it seriously ". But it turned out, time has not yet reached. Go comes too slowly. Anyway, Sharapova remains on TV and in February 1998 took up an ambitious project "Arina". However, the conditions proposed by the ORT, she did not like, and she gave the pilot tape on NTV. ( "They said: great, we must take. But ORT very angry when they learned, because they wanted this transfer. ") Meanwhile, the evil Telekritika delighted with the program did not fall, and began to incriminate the lead of insincerity.

. In general, "Arina" held out for long.

. But his natural optimism Sharapova worthy of astonishment
. (Probably because it supports the spirit and the current husband Cyril Legat - General Director of TV company "NTV-graphy"). Since October 1999 she became columnist Directorate of socio-political programs of JSC "Moscow Independent Broadcasting Corporation, TV-6 Moscow" (MNVK), . author and leading daily journalistic program "Meeting Place" (TV-6). leading morning TV 'Good Morning' (Channel),
. Permanent program participant on the first channel Inter celebrated.
