I was born in the city of Uzhur, Minusinsk rayon, Krasnoyarsk krai, in 1948. Our family was large, 10 people in total. My father, Andzhuraev Yaman Andzhuraevich, worked as a teacher. My mother was a menial worker. During exile, on our way to Siberia, four of my sisters froze to death. In 1957, we returned to our native village of Tsagan-Nur in the Ketchenerovsky rayon. After graduating from school, I studied at the Pedagogical School named after Kharti Kanukov. I got married, and moved to the village of Smushkovoye in the Yustinsky rayon, where I worked as a teacher, a head teacher and director at a secondary school. : Sponsored by Arcadia Fund, a charitable fund of Lisbet Rausing and Peter Baldwin
