In the ‘house of communication’ was the flat of the family of Yuri Vishny, where the father of the future journalist created unique radio receivers that surpassed the quality of factory models. Here also appeared one of the first TV sets in the district – ‘Start’, and later a colour ‘Record-102’, which made Vishny’s flat a place of attraction for neighbours who gathered to watch TV shows.
Thus, the ‘communication house’ on Pushkin Street became not just an address in Yuri Vishny’s biography, but also a symbolic place where his interest in mass communication media was born, which determined his entire future professional destiny. Unfortunately, the exact number of the house is not specified in the available sources, which creates additional historical interest in this landmark place for Chelyabinsk journalism.
He received his journalism degree from Chelyabinsk State Pedagogical University, now SUSUrSPU.
