Mikhail Baryshnikov Picture Gallery

Mikhail Baryshnikov has mesmerized the world for years with his grace and agility. For years! The man is in his sixties (born Jan 27, 1948) and it's as if he hasn't aged a day since 1974 when he made his presence felt in the West after defecting from the then USSR. Oh how the world was enchanted with this dancing model of perfection! Despite his relatively short stature - he is 5'6" tall - this guy stood tall as he took center stage at the American Ballet Theater, the New York City Ballet and on his several tours. Take a look at the videos and you will see why this dancer is so loved, look at the strength, the power, the grace, the ease and of course the variety. Mikhail's well known for his screen presence too. His "The Nutcracker" was televised and I'm sure you remember him in "White Knights" and as Carrie's boyfriend in Sex and the City. Didn't you just hate him then. You didn't? Aah you love these types huh? He once told Larry King that he doesn't believe in marriage but that doesn't mean that he ain't committed. He's got his girl Lisa Rinehart with whom he has three kids, so hands off ladies.
