Baryshnikov on imperfection

Mikhail Baryshnikov is often cited alongside Vaslav Nijinsky, Rudolf Nureyev and Vladimir Vasiliev as one of the greatest male ballet dancers in history. …

He’s only 5 ft 5in (165 cm) tall, short for a ballet dancer.

Since his defection from the Soviet Union in 1974, Baryshnikov has never returned to Russia.
