In 1947, Pavel Pankov graduated from the studio of the Leningrad Bolshoi Drama Theater named after M. Gorky and began to play in this theater. Creative search led him to Moscow, where he worked in the theater named after M.N. Yermolova in 1951-1952, then he returned to his native city, played in the theater named after Lensovet, and then he was invited by the head of the Leningrad Comedy Theater Nikolai Akimov. On this stage revealed the bright talent of the actor, his brilliant comedy gift. In 1965, after the death of Akimov, Pavel Pankov joined the troupe of the Leningrad Academic Bolshoi Drama Theater named after M. Gorky, which was led by another great director - Georgy Tovstonogov. Success for the actor was one of the first roles on the stage of BDT - Teterev in "Peterchans" M. Gorky. In the cinema, Pavel Pankov first starred in the film “The Great Citizen”, released in 1939. Then there were such films as Alexander Popov (1949), Baltic Glory (1957), Everything Remains to People (1963), Bunny (1964), Intervention (1968), The Black Prince (1973), Agony (1974-1981). The actor became widely recognizable thanks to the role of Neighbor in one of the novels of the comedy “The Magic Power of Art” (1970), where the main role was played by Arkady Raikin. The dramatic possibilities of Pavel Pankov are evidenced by the role of Commissioner Berg in the film The Life and Death of Ferdinand Luce (1976), but, unfortunately, this side of the actor's talent remained not fully disclosed - in the summer of 1978 he died.
