Career
Pivovarov began his career in 1988 working in radio. Since 2005 he has been well known as a news presenter for Evening News "Segodnya" ("Today"), usually appearing with Lilia Gildeeva, and for his own TV projects. At the beginning of his TV career, Pivovarov was a protégé of Leonid Parfyonov. In 2004-2005 when Parfyonov was fired from "NTV", Pivovarov supported him with a sarcastic comment on the air, and was suspended from the Evening news as punishment. The news agency Reuters called Pivovarov "an unlikely opposition hero" after the website of the newspaper Kommersant reported that he allegedly refused to read the news on December 8, 2011 if he could not report on the ongoing protests in Moscow, which were being ignored by the state-controlled media. The next day, reports on the protests were included in the evening NTV news report, and other channels followed their example. NTV denied that Pivovarov had made any ultimatum, and Pivovarov himself never confirmed the report.
Film Making
In recent years Alexey has written, produced and presented five docudramas about World War II: Rzhev: General Zhukov’s Unknown Battle (2009); Moscow. Fall of 1941 (2010); The Captive Heroes of Brest (2010); Betrayal:The Story of Vlasov’s Second Shock Army (2011); and June 22, 1941: Fateful Decisions (2011). Based on thorough research, newly released historic documents and interviews with experts and surviving witnesses, each film sheds new light on events of the recent past, deviating significantly from the version imposed by official soviet historiography. Poignant and revealing, these films depict the tragedy of war through the eyes of ordinary people, while stressing the parallels between Stalin and Hitler.
