maternal uncle, a well-known historian, Professor Alexander
Vasilyevich Mishulin, who specialized in the War of Spartacus. The
Mishulins' family lived in the center of Moscow on Nastasinsky Lane.
Spartak from an early age was fascinated by the theater and dreamed of
becoming an actor.In 1937, Anna Mishulina was arrested as an enemy of
the people and exiled to Tashkent, and Spartak remained in the care of
his uncle Alexander Mishulin, who held the post of rector of the
Academy of Social Sciences under the Central Committee of the
Communist Party. After the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, the
Mishulins' family found themselves in evacuation in Dzerzhinsk).In
1941, Spartak Mishulin entered the artillery school in
Anzhero-Sudzhensk by mistake, he misunderstood its name which was a
portmanteau word (Russian: Ð°Ñ€Ñ‚Ñ Ð¿ÐµÑ†ÑˆÐºÐ¾Ð»Ð°, romanized:
artspezshkola) and thought that it was an acting school. After
studying at the artillery school, he committed a misdemeanor for which
he served a 1.5 year sentence. In the labor camp Spartak met his
uncle's personal driver by chance, also a fellow convict. The driver
was the head of the mill and took the young man as his subordinate
water carrier. After a while he was caught bringing grain instead of
water to the prisoners, thereby prolonging his term for another year
and a half.
