Biography

Olga Kabo was born in Moscow, the daughter of engineers Igor Yakovlevich and Ada Nikolayevna.[2] From an early age she studied ballroom dance, rhythmic gymnastics, and attended art and musical courses, the latter at the Moscow Conservatory. Aged 15, she appeared in two films, the youth drama And Everything Returns (by Yaroslav Lupyi) and Vitaly Makarov's musical film No Joking. Having graduated from secondary school, Olga joined the Treatre studio at the Boris Shchukin Theatre Institute. She continued her education at the Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography where she joined the class of Sergey Bondarchuk.[3]

Kabo's first success in film came with the part of Isabella in Sergey Tarasov's The Adventures of Quentin Durward (1988). She became famous in 1989 for her role in Lysistrata Comedy (featuring some nudity scenes) which brought her the reputation of a Russian movie sex symbol.[4] In the 1990s she became internationally known for her roles in The Ice Runner (Lena, 1992) and Burial of the Rats (Anna, 1995). In 2002 Kabo joined the Mossovet Theatre troupe; that year she was honoured with the Meritorious Artist of Russia title.[1]

Private life

Kabo's first husband was the businessman Eduard Vasilishin. Their daughter Tatyana was born in 1998. After the divorce, she married the businessman Nikolai Razgulyayev in 2009. They have a son, Viktor, born in 2012.
