Mikhail Baryshnikov & Jessica Lange

Jessica Lange remains the epitome of beauty that has been reflected on screen, if not eclipsed by her private life. She rose to fame with her performances in both TV shows and films, including blockbuster hits King Kong and Blue Sky. Her acting prowess earned her several awards under her belt. She met the respected ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov in 1976, and they welcomed their daughter, Shura, 5 years later.

Being the daughter of a legendary dancer and an award-winning actress, she was destined to become famous to a certain degree. Shura Baryshnikov spent part of her youth in tutus and pointe shoes, but it took her 35 years to find herself as an artist. She has come out behind the scenes and starred in the production of Salome. She continued to step out of her parents’ shadows by honing her craft in cooking and arts.
