biography
Gryzlov was born in Vladivostok, but moved to Leningrad with his family at the age of four . His father Vyacheslav Gryzlov was used as a fighter pilot in the Far East during the German-Soviet War 1941-1945 . His mother was a teacher. Boris Gryzlov's parents were both of Russian descent. His grandfather was a Russian Orthodox priest.
Gryzlov graduated from School No. 211 in Leningrad with honors and studied radio engineering from 1967 to 1973 at the Leningrad Electrotechnical University of Communication Engineering. He then worked in a device manufacturing company, initially as an engineer, later as chief designer and department head.
Gryzlov's political career did not begin until the late 1990s, although the friendship with the later secret service chief Nikolai Patrushev, which had existed since his academic years, played a role in his ascent . In 1998 Gryzlov ran in the elections for the Petersburg city parliament, but failed. In the 1999 election campaign for the Duma elections , he headed the Petersburg regional staff of the Unity Movement ( Jedinstwo ), which later became part of the United Russia party. In the elections that followed, he was elected a member of the parliament and shortly thereafter was appointed leader of the Jedinstwo . On March 28, 2001, President Putin appointed Gryzlov Minister of the Interior . In this office he was best known for his tough crackdown on corrupt police officers - he himself coined the term "werewolves in uniform" , which has become known for them . Liberal opposition members accused Gryzlov of merely promoting populism in the run-up to the parliamentary elections with these measures .
In November 2002, the United Russia Executive Committee elected Gryzlov as chairman of the party's highest council. In the parliamentary elections in 2003 Gryzlov moved back into the State Duma and was elected chairman of the United Russia faction and the deputies to be the new speaker of parliament. Shortly after the December 2003 elections, Gryzlov submitted his resignation as Minister of the Interior to Putin; Raschid Nurgalijew was appointed as his successor in this office . In November 2004 Gryzlov was elected chairman of the United Russia party. He resigned this post to Prime Minister Putin in 2008 and has been chairman of the party's Supreme Council since then.
