Awards
From 1947 to 1954, she studied in Moscow at the painting department of the M. Kalinin Art and Industrial School. After graduation, she was engaged in the design of exhibitions, and then, on the advice of friends, she came to Soyuzmultfilm, where the artist Vladimir Pekar was setting up courses in animation. In 1977, striving for their own vision of a puppet film, together with their husband Joseph Douksha, they moved to the Multtelefilm studio in TO Ekran, where in 1978 they made their debut as directors of the cartoon "The Postman's Tale". Until 1992, they continued to collaborate on puppet animation. Buzinova died on 30 January 2022, at the age of 92.
