Nosov, Igor Petrovich

Born in the family of Peter Nikolaevich Nosov (1931–2002), the only son of Nikolai Nosov. Nicholas took a very big part in the upbringing of Igor - watching the first years of his grandson, in his life, he published the book “A Tale of My Friend Igor” .

Igor Nosov decided to write his own books about Dunno after the first books of other authors began to appear.

In the newspaper chronicle, Igor Nosov is discussed as a current children's writer. Books "Island Dunno" (for example, the story of how Dunno was a photographer - and flashed negatives) and "Dunno in the Stone City" (environmental tale).

In 2007, the audiobook "Big Surprise Dunno" was published. Although the publisher of the tracklist is unequivocally Igor Nosov (1. Surprise, 2. Lil'ka-Kilka, 3. Unscientific method, 4. Bang! Ready, 5. The right thing, 6. Talking mushroom, 7. Ghostly striped), on the cover of the audiobook also featured Nikolai Nosov as co-author .

Igor Nosov was repeatedly involved in legal proceedings for the reason that he believed that all copyrights on Dunno as a character belonged to his grandfather, therefore he constantly monitored any attempts to use his name and image in publishing and advertising activities. In the course of numerous trials, it turned out in the end that Igor Nosov, as heir, retains copyright only on his grandfather’s books and those names and images of characters that were invented by Nikolai Nosov, while on Dunno’s names and Several characters of the Nasal Rights family do not have: these names were invented by the writer Anna Khvolson for her children's book “The Kingdom of Babies” (which in turn was based on the comic Palmer Cox ). So, in October 2003, Igor Nosov lost the court with the publishing house “Egmont Russia LTD”, which produced the coloring on the cartoon “ Dunno on the Moon ” , and in November 2003, lost the court with the company “Vremya AV”, which produced children's molds for the sandbox called "Dunno".

The first trials happened in 1999, when the writer Boris Karlov published his sequel Dunno. The ensuing copyright conflict ultimately led to the fact that Charles’s books were later reprinted with changed character names and some editorial editing. In 2001, 10-year-old Grigory Vaipan released a peculiar sequel to the Nosov trilogy "Dunno in the Stone City" . Before the book was published, Igor Nosov put forward a corresponding claim to the Vaipan family, but Gregory’s father Viktor Vaipan, being a lawyer, managed to settle the case without bringing it to court, proving that the Nosov family does not have copyright on the characters entirely. The book was published, but the character Knopochka had to be excluded from it, since of all the characters in the book only it was entirely invented by Nosov.

In 2009, the book “New Adventures of Dunno, Futik and Other Short Men” ( Svetlana Oseeva , Petr Solodkiy ), published in a circulation of 1000 copies, was published. Igor Nosov did not make any complaints to the authors of this book.

Married to Lilia Sergeevna Nosovoy. They have four children: Ivan, Peter, Anastasia and Barbara .
