Some false journalists say that Olga Ilyinichna closed herself from everyone due to career failures. Now, at the age of 76, she really refuses to act in films and TV shows, does not give interviews and does not appear at public events, but the fact that she closed herself from everyone is, of course, invented nonsense.
Instead of acting, Olga Ilyinichna was engaged in teaching. She taught kids at the theater school, located in the Krasnopresnensky district of the capital, and sometimes gave lessons at the famous theater institutes – VGIK and GITIS. Not so long ago, the actress retired.
Health at this age, alas, begins to fail, work becomes much harder, and besides, Olga Ilyinichna really appreciates her family and wants to spend as much time with her family as possible. We wish her all the best, and thank you for the unforgettable role of Barbara, which she played brilliantly. In fact, it’s hard to imagine how the film “17 Moments of Spring” would have turned out if her role had gone to someone else.
