Biography

She was born in Stalingrad, on July 10, 1953.

In 1972, she moved to Moscow and enrolled into Russian Academy of Theatre Arts (locally, GITIS). While attending the academy, she debuted in several motion pictures such as Hello, I'm Your Aunt! (1975) among the few. Upon graduation, Vedeneyeva was invited to the Mayakovsky Theatre, but soon was fired for not having a residential permission (propiska). She became well known amongst the Soviet children of 70s and 80s for her leading role in children programs Good Night, Little Ones!, and Visiting a Fairy Land (V gostiakh u skazki) as "Aunt Tania". She was also a presenter on the BBC's televised Russian language course for beginners, Russian Language and People. Later Vedeneyeva led various other TV shows and concert events and was amongst the most popular in the Union. In 1993 was forced to resign.

She moved to France with her husband where she lived until 1999. In 2000, Vedeneyeva returned to TV.

Her last known appearance in Good Night little ones occurred in 2002 as she was replaced by Oxana Fedorova as host.
