Anatoli himself was raised in Orthodox traditions.

1922

Anatoli Dmitriyevich Papanov (Анатолий Дмитриевич Папанов; 31 October 1922 – 5 August 1987) was a Soviet and Russian actor, drama teacher, and theatre director at the Moscow Satire Theatre where he served for almost 40 years.

A prominent character actor, Papanov is mostly remembered for his comedy roles in a duo with his friend Andrei Mironov, although he had many dramatic roles as well.

As a voice actor he contributed to over hundred cartoons.

1924

During his studies he met his future wife, a fellow student Nadezhda Yuryevna Karatayeva (born 1924), who had also served in the war as a nurse on a hospital train.

1930

In 1930 the family moved to Moscow.

As a schoolboy Papanov attended drama courses, then went on to work as a caster at a factory, simultaneously performing in a popular theatre studio for factory workers organized by Vakhtangov Theatre actors led by Vasily Kuza whom Papanov later considered his first teacher.

During the late 1930s he made a number of uncredited appearances in movies, such as a sailor in Lenin in October (1937) or a passerby in The Foundling (1939).

1941

In 1941, after the invasion of the Soviet Union, Papanov joined the Red Army and left for the front line.

As a senior sergeant he headed an anti-aircraft warfare platoon.

He spent six months in a military hospital and was sent home as disabled, and for the next several years he could only walk with a cane.

It didn't bring him any fame, though, as the movie was heavily criticized upon release and quickly banned for 25 years straight.

1964

Papanov became very famous, however, after his work as General Serpilin in Aleksandr Stolper's war drama The Living and the Dead (1964).

1966

In 1966, Eldar Ryazanov released Beware of the Car, in which Papanov appeared alongside his friend Andrei Mironov, with Mironov as a modern-day black marketeer, and Papanov as his father-in-law, a war veteran who mocks him all the way through.

1967

His distinguishing growling voice suited all kind of beasts such as Shere Khan from Adventures of Mowgli (1967), a Soviet adaptation of The Jungle Book.

1968

Its popularity led Leonid Gaidai to cast them in his 1968 comedy The Diamond Arm as the main antagonists, a pair of smugglers who tried to get their hands on the hero's "diamond arm".

The film was seen by 76.7 million people on the year of release, becoming the third most popular Soviet movie of all time.

1969

His most popular characters, though, were wolves, especially after he voiced the Wolf character in the top-rated animated series Well, Just You Wait! (1969—1986), which has been considered his best role, overshadowing all of his other work, to his great displeasure.

Papanov suffered from chronic heart failure.
