Mikhail Baryshnikov nicknamed “Misha”, Soviet-born dancer and choreographer, noted for his engaging stage personality was one of the greatest ballet dancers in the history. He was born on 27 January in Riga (in present-day Latvia) in 1948. Baryshnikov studied ballet there and in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg), joining the Kirov Ballet in 1967. As a soloist and later as a principal dancer with the Kirov, he appeared in classical ballets, setting new standards for technical virtuosity. He also created roles in newly choreographed ballets, including Hamlet (1970), and The Creation of the World (1971).
