Career
With his partner Natalia Mishkutenok, he was coached by Tamara Moskvina in Saint Petersburg. The pair won the gold medal at the 1992 Olympics, and the silver at the 1994 Olympics behind Ekaterina Gordeeva and Sergei Grinkov. They represented the Unified Team, the sports team of the former Soviet Union during the 1992 Olympics, but represented Russia in 1994. Mishkutenok and Dmitriev won the World Figure Skating Championships and the European Championships in 1991 and 1992.
After Mishkutenok decided to retire from competition, Dmitriev found a new partner, Oksana Kazakova. They also trained with Moskvina in Saint Petersburg. The pair won the European Championships in 1996. They then won the gold at the 1998 Olympics, ahead of Elena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze. This made Dmitriev the first male skater to win the pairs event twice with different partners.
Despite being close competitive rivals, he was friends with both Grinkov and Sikharulidze. He helped Moskvina coach Sikharulidze even while they were competing against each other.
After retiring from skating, he became a coach. He spent a few years coaching at Hackensack, New Jersey's Ice House.[1] He now works at Saint Petersburg's Yubileyny Sports Palace and is coaching Katarina Gerboldt and Alexander Enbert, together with Moskvina.[2]
Personal life
From 1992 to 2006 Dmitriev was married to Tatiana Druchinina, a former World champion in rhythmic gymnastics, who choreographed the Olympic programs of ice dancers Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov, and is the choreographer for Yuko Kawaguchi and Alexander Smirnov. They have one son, Artur Jr, who is a singles skater.[3] He is remarried to an accountant, Tatiana Fedorova, with whom he has a son named Artiom.
