Biography

Samarsky was born on 15 August 1996 in Rostov-on-Don and has lived in Moscow since 1997.[1] He studied at Moscow's School No. 1084 from 2003 to 2007 and at School No. 1239 from 2007 to 2012. From 2012 to 2013, he studied at the School of External Studies No. 1, which is affiliated with Moscow State University.[1][2] In 2013, he was admitted to the Department of Political Science of Moscow State University.[1]

At the same time, he graduated from the Faculty of Military Education of Moscow State University and was sent to the recruitment office and enlistment office of Moscow for military training in the 4th Guards Kantemirovskaya Tank Division.

In 2017, after graduating from Moscow State University he entered Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography at the Higher Courses of Cinema and Television according to the program “Cinema Direction and Screen Writing”.

Since 23 August 2018, Mikhail works as an actor at “Theater Orbit” studio; he debuted at the Tyumen Drama Theater.

Family

Samarsky's father, Alexander Vasilyevich Samarsky (born 1959), is a playwright, script writer and poet.[1][3] His mother, Anna Mikhailovna Samarskaya (maiden name Amelina) (born 1971), author of detective novels published under the pseudonym Anna Arkan, chairman of the board of the charity fund to help blind people «Living hearts»[1][3]

Literary activity
Meeting with readers at the Odintzovo bookstore, Moscow.

Samarsky, at the age of twelve, wrote his first novella, "On a Teeterboard Between the Hills,” which, upon its publication the following year, received coverage by the mass media.[4][5] Yekaterina Bosina, writing in "Ogonyok" magazine, wrote that there are no "substantial revelations" for adult readers, but "from the language perspective the book isn't "Baby talk" at all, the absence of which "gives Misha Samarsky an edge over the majority of his peers."[6] Samarsky, thus encouraged, continued his literary activity. He published a novel, "A Rainbow for a Friend,” which became the first in a four-book series. (Moreover, the "Eksmo" publishing house has published the books under the theme, "The Adventures of an Extraordinary Dog.") An article published in the magazine Neva in the summer of 2013 referred to Samarsky as "a young prose writer well known by the greater [Russian] public.[7]

Public activity and charitable work

Samarsky began his engagement in charitable activities in 2010, when he founded an informal program, "Living Hearts,” through which, with the help of friends and acquaintances, he was able to assist blind children. He published audio books, Braille-font books, etc., and purchased equipment for blind and visually impaired children. Russian entrepreneurs, politicians and actors provided assistance in the operation of the program. Businessman Andrei Ryabinsky proposed that it be registered as an official charity fund for the blind under the "Living Hearts" name.[8] Thus, on October 12, 2012 the charity fund "Living Hearts" was founded on the basis of the program. Anna Mikhailovna Samarskaya, Mikhail's mother, is a co-founder and the chairperson of the fund.[8]

On 9 November 2011, during the meeting with Russia's President Dmitry Medvedev and Russian bloggers, Samarsky raised the issue of Internet accessibility for visually impaired people. He stated that the Braille displays for computers are out of reach for the majority of visually impaired people because they're expensive and the displays, which are provided to children for use in their studies, must be returned after graduation.[9][10] The issue received further development, and President Medved'yev recommended an amendment to the legislation to allow a child to keep the technical equipment after graduation.[11]
