Klara Rumyanova

Klara Rumyanova

Klara Mikhailovna Rumyanova (Russian: Кла́ра Миха́йловна Румя́нова; December 8, 1929, Leningrad – September 18, 2004, Moscow) was a Soviet and Russian actress and singer. She was active from 1951 to 1999.

Her small, adorable voice is easily recognized by several generations of Soviet people from their early childhood, because she voiced numerous Russian animated films and sang countless children's songs. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union her songs have been heard even more, because of numerous releases of compact discs and tapes of children's songs from cartoons of the Soyuzmultfilm studio. She also played roles in several films.

Rumyanova died of breast cancer on September 18, 2004.
