Biography

Early life and education

Dogileva was born on February 27, 1957, in Moscow, into a working-class family. She received her secondary education at the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences in Moscow, where she combined her studies with rhythmic gymnastics and choreography. At age 14, she entered the Young Actor's Studio at the Central Television.

In 1978, Dogileva graduated from the Lunacharsky State Institute of Theatrical Art, where she studied under Vsevolod Ostalsky.

Theatre

Dogileva's stage career began with a successful performance in her thesis play ''Much Ado About Nothing'', where she played Beatrice.

She was then invited to three theaters in Moscow, and she chose Lenin Komsomol Theater, where she worked until 1985. Among her best-known Lenkom parts was that of Nelly in ''Cruel Games'', staged by Mark Zakharov, which was an important theatrical event at the time.

Having transferred in 1985 to the Yermolova Theatre, Dogileva participated in the productions of director Valery Fokin's ''Sports Games'', ''Speak'', ''Shaky Balance'', and ''Our Decameron''., a play by Roman Viktyuk.

In the eight-hour play by Peter Stein ''"Oresteia" Aeschylus'' (1994), staged at the base of the Russian Army Theatre, Dogileva played Electra. According to critics, her performance was the main event of that Russian theatrical season. With the same performance on an international tour, she earned recognition from audiences in France, Germany, Greece, Great Britain and the Netherlands.

Among the theatrical works of Tatyana Dogileva in the 1990s were ''Twelfth Night'' at the Mossovet Theatre and "The Incredible Session", along Mikhail Kozakov. She subsequently performed in the plays ''Honoring'', at the Anton Chekov Theatre, and 'The Ideal Husband'', staged in 2004 at the Theater-Studio under the direction of Oleg Tabakov '.

Film

Dogileva started her film career while still a student, cast in episodic parts. Her first major role was of Nina in ''The Stowaway Passenger'' (1978). In the following years, she starred in the films ''Vasily and Vasilisa'' (1981), '' Private Life'' (1982), '' The Pokrovsky Gate'' (1982), '' Station for Two'' (1982), ''The Unexpected'' (1983), and many others.

The role of saleswoman Vera in '' The Blonde Around the Corner'' (1984) directed by Vladimir Bortko was especially noteworthy; along with Andrei Mironov, the actress created a new type of character for the screen - charming in a feminine way, yet firmly independent from the "omnipotent" Soviet service sector.

The actress received more recognition among audiences with the role of nurse Lida in the picture '' Forgotten Melody for a Flute'' (1987), directed by Eldar Ryazanov. Dogileva played the heroine of her time, sternly confronting life difficulties while saving her lover from moral death. The same theme recurred in her role of Marina from '' Afghan Breakdown'' (1993), directed by Vladimir Bortko.

Among the films in her later years, there were ''The Bridegroom from Miami'' (1994), '' Hello, Fools!'' (1996), ''East/West'' (1999) as well as the TV series ''Plot'' (2003), ''Lyuba, Children and the Plant'' (2005-2006 sitcom), ''Hobo'' (2007, 2009) and ''Mine'' (2009).

In 2005-2007, Tatyana Dogileva hosted the psychological talk show ''Two Truths'' on NTV.

Directing

In 1998, Tatyana Dogileva made her debut as stage director in Mikhail Kozakov's theatrical company; she staged the romantic comedy "Moonlight, a Honeymoon" based on the play ''Private Lives'' by English playwright Noël Coward. It was translated by her husband Mikhail Mishin. Despite the initially poor critical reception, the play went on being performed for 20 years.

Then there were ''The Ones In Love do not Renounce...'' (2000); ''Moscow Passions'' based on Alexander Ostrovsky's play '' It's Not All Shrovetide for the Cat'' at the Mikhail Kozakov Theater, and the comedy ''The Lady Waits, the Clarinet Plays'' (2004), with the creative association "Duet". In 2011, her play ''Fallen Angels'' premiered at the Central House of Musicians.

Dogileva herself acted in almost all the plays she directed. Her directorial debut was the film ''Lera'' (2007).

Literature

In addition to her work in theater, cinema and television, the actress has been also active in the literary field. Her first novel, ''The Life and Adventures of Sveta Khokhryakova'', published in 2010, tackles modern Russian realities - the poverty-stricken life in the remote places of the country; the luxury and moral degradation of the rich living in the capital city, and the venality of people working in television.
