Biography of Danilova Natalia Yurievna
Natalya was born on September 25, 1955 in Leningrad. The girl’s parents were far from the acting profession; they were more interested in the science of philology and archeology. And Natasha did not think of becoming a silver screen star; she was rather inclined towards journalism, learned to read early and wrote poetry, which she later set to music of her own composition.

The actress’s relationships with men frankly did not work out.
Even in her youth, Galina tried to improve relations with her father, who once abandoned her, but to no avail.

The actress's first husband was her classmate Vladimir Popov. They moved to Moscow together, served in the same theater, and played together in the production of Macbeth.

Parting
Natalya Yuryevna Danilova blames herself for this, saying that she ruined a person’s life.

The first one said: “The wife is always right,” and the second one said, “See point one.”
Stately, handsome Sergei suffered a heart attack and stroke at the same time; he was in the hospital, and the actress’s mother was at home. It so happened that just at this time she left the theater. All the worries fell on her shoulders, fortunately, dubbing helped, but this didn’t make much money, the medications alone were worth it.
