The daughter of Russian emigrants
So, where does the story of Vladi begin? Probably, first we need to remember that it's not for nothing that her life is so closely connected with Russia.

Her parents were very talented people who had a direct relationship to art. Marina's dad is an opera singer and actor Vladimir Polyakov-Baidarov, and his mother, Melica Enwald is a ballerina, daughter of the general. By the way, Marina became Vladi because of her father. When he died, the girl decided to take part of his name as a pseudonym. Marina was born on May 10, 1938. In addition to Marina, the family had three children, all the girls: Olya, Tanya and Melitsa.
