Now in our large and prosperous country - the Russian Federation - there are not many who can really be called members of the government who do everything not for themselves, but for their beloved country, for the citizens living in it, for all who supported them and supports to this day. But such people still exist. And one of them is Advisor to the President Vladimir Tolstoy.
The beginning of the life of Vladimir Tolstoy
Vladimir Ilyich was born in 1962 (September 28) in a wonderful city, which is now the capital of Mother Russia, in Moscow. Many do not know that Vladimir Tolstoy is the great-great-grandson of a very famous literary figure in the whole world, famous for his amazing works - Leo Tolstoy.
Vladimir graduated from high school with honors, thanks to which he could easily enter the Moscow State University, where he studied at the Faculty of Journalism. According to him, then he believed that journalism was his vocation, but, as it became known a little later, he still made a little mistake.
Student weekdays
Even on his student days, Tolstoy Vladimir Ilyich got a job in the little-known magazine Student Meridian, where he received his first praise from the employer. It is also worth noting that the man collaborated with a very well-known publishing house, which was called Young Guard.
In 1984, Vladimir Tolstoy graduated from Lomonosov Moscow State University, but did not leave his first job - he continued to work at the Student Meridian Publishing House.
Life after study
The next eight years, a descendant of a well-known family, in spite of everything, continued to work in the same publishing house. He even managed to get the position of senior literary editor of the department in which he worked. This activity satisfied him, and he received for what he liked, money, albeit small.
In 1988, Vladimir Tolstoy became a member of the so-called Union of Journalists of the USSR, and after a while - the Union of Writers of Russia.
As a result, Vladimir left the editors of the Student Meridian magazine and took the place of the best expert in the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation.
In 1992, Tolstoy wrote a lot of material related to the illegal construction and deforestation in Yasnaya Polyana. This material interested many people, and therefore was published in various magazines and newspapers, the most prominent of which is Komsomolskaya Pravda.
Two years later, at the end of the summer of 1994, V. Tolstoy became the director of the State Natural and Memorial Reserve (thanks to his article in Komsomolskaya Pravda, to which the Minister of Culture Yevgeny Sidorov turned his attention), entitled "Yasnaya Polyana", where, in fact, it has been working to this day, despite its positions in the Russian government.
