A brilliant characteristic actress, played small roles in the films “Polyushko-Pole”, “There is an idea!”, “4: 0 in favor of Tanechka”. Mother of actresses Yela Sanko and Natalia Sanko.
Elena Sanko in 20 years went to the front as a volunteer, served in artillery, was a sergeant. At the height of the war, the division commander proposed to her, and on the night of January 1, 1943, they decided to get married. Their first daughter (and all three of them were born) the couple decided to name in honor of their first Christmas tree – Christmas tree. The passport says "Ela." Since then, the family has celebrated every new year as the main holiday of their lives: they tried to set the same “military” products on the table and install a luxurious Christmas tree under the ceiling.
Due to the fact that Elena Dmitrievna’s husband was a military man, the family often moved. She graduated from the theater studio in Tbilisi, received several offers from the Griboyedov Theatre, but was forced to refuse - her husband was transferred to a new place. Sanko played in Moscow at the Theatre of the Soviet Army, then in Poland, in the Northern Troops Group, in Germany - in the Western Troops Group, she staged performances herself.
Again – CTSA, from where Elena Sanko was eventually reduced to a group of actresses. She began to act more in films and work with boys and girls who dream of a theater career. Elena Dmitrievna unmistakably guessed the talent and completely free of charge helped young people to prepare for admission to the institute. Often starred in educational and diploma works of Vgikovtsy.
Among the films: “Polyushko-field” (Lukeria Kovrova), “Oleko Dundich” (Nadezhda Ivanovna), “Khovanshchina” (shooter’s wife), “It happened in the police” (typist), “The Tale of the Chekist” (Bekker), “What a person needs” (Lida), “The Bride” (Aunt Tonya), “The Family of Zatsepins” (Mother Yurki), “I want to be a minister” (Anna Efimovna), “Youth with us” (Liliyd) (Lyada). Elena Sanko was so organic and natural on the screen that her work was jokingly compared to the existence in the frame of children or animals. She felt any character and skillfully transferred it to the screen.
In 1948 she graduated from the theater studio at the Griboyedov Theatre in Tbilisi. In 1954-59 - actress CTSA. She worked in drama theaters in Germany and Poland. Since 1964 - actress CTSA.
She died on December 31, 1984.
