When the war began , Fayvish and his mother left for evacuation to the Urals . His father, Boris Fayvovich Klyuchik, went to fight in the fighter battalion, then in the Estonian Rifle Corps and fought until victory. Shortly after the war, he died of a blood poisoning. [2]
During his school years, Fayvi went to the photo club of the Tallinn Pioneer House, and in 1950 his first photo was published in the newspaper “ Youth of Estonia ” [3] . In 1958, Fayvy Klyuchik was invited as a full-time correspondent to the newspaper “ Soviet Estonia ” [4] . In “Soviet Estonia” he worked for 40 years [4] . Fayvi Kluczik also took pictures for many other Estonian print media. In the 1990s, he worked as a photojournalist for the Estonian newspaper .
“He was a journalist unique to his time, a real reporter ... He was very ill, wore special orthopedic shoes. As they say now, a person was with limited abilities, but nevertheless had an amazing ability to keep pace everywhere, ”recalled Svetlana Ivanova, a colleague of Fayvy Klyuchik, who worked in the newspaper Sovetskaya Estonia [5] .
Fayvich Klyuchik moved to Zaporozhets with manual control, in the last years of his life Aviva's wife helped him in his work, but he was always one of the first to find himself at the place of an interesting or significant event, he was able to persuade the protection of important persons to let him in.

Fyvy Klyuchik shot workers and peasants, commanders and soldiers, presidents and kings, athletes, artists and composers. He did not like staged shots. In his photographs and dignitaries, and celebrities, and ordinary people always look like they were photographed for a family photo album.
“Exclusive - in those Soviet times, this word, which is now so familiar, was foreign. Fyvie often used it and said it himself: I obtained exclusive, I will get exclusive, so he always wanted to be the first, ”shared Fayvich Klyuchik, a colleague in the newspaper Youth Estonia, Vladimir Fridland [5] .
Fayvich Klyuchik managed to find and photograph the first “Khrushchev” corn in Estonia. And when his picture appeared in “Youth of Estonia”, the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Estonia Kebin went to the place to check if they really managed to grow such corn (in order to see its height, Klyuchik put the horse into the corn), or a message about it “The newspaper duck .” That turned out to be true. [2]
