Shura Baryshnikov – Jessica Lange’s Daughter

Jessica Lange started her career as a model before she found her way into the acting business. With that said, her journey to becoming an established actress began in 1976 with her debut acting credit in that year’s King Kong movie – other actresses who were calling for the role of the damsel-in-distress include Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn.

Along the way, Jessica also got the chance to become a loving mother and now has three kids, with her eldest being Shura Baryshnikov. Throughout her childhood, Shura learned classical ballet. Eventually developed a knack for horse riding, running track, and played field hockey during her high-school years. With her college studies focusing on American studies, contemporary dance, and theatre, Shura has since found success as an established teacher, dancer, and stage actress, performing in productions such as Oscar Wilde’s Salome and Trinity Rep’s Oklahoma.
