Russia is huge and lovely country, customarily well known for its buildings, art, museums and gems. Apart from all this, Russia is also well-known for its real gems, the influential folks who were born in Russia. If you think, you can take a brief look at the list of Great Russian people then I must make it plain that it is absolutely most unlikely. This place is a real rich mine of eminent and famous people. I used to be a bit confused so I choose one from the top three categories. Take a look..
Baryshnikov Mikhail : Ballet dancer and actor (1948)
Baryshnikov Mikhail comes the first on my list of Famous Russians. He was born in Riga and studied in St. Petersburg. Later he joined Kirov (now known as Mariinsky) theatre in 1960 as a soloist. While on tour with a group in Canada (1974), Baryshnikov selected to remain to extend his range by including modern ballets. This incredible skillful performer joined the American Ballet Theatre and became its Director shortly. Beside making his well known version of the Nutcracker, he has also done acting with roles in White Nights and The Turning Point in Hollywood.
Rasputin Grigori: Monk: (1871-1916)
Rasputin has been among the most controversial public figures of the tsar Russia. He had been famous for his unusual contribution in treatment of Tsarevich Alexis ' haemophilia (1907), where the best surgeons failed. He was expert at hypnotism. At times when Alexis started to bleed, it was Rasputin only who was able to unwind the kid, ease the agonies, moreover slow the bleeding. His contribution gave him a reception to the court, which was exploited covetously in an appalling life of debauchery, along with pulling the picture of the court and the imperial family farther into the mud. Rasputin political influence grew shortly thanks to his control of Tsarina Alexandra. Key military and political personnel were dropped or chosen according to his wish. Later , some monarchists sent by Prince Yusupov murdered him.
Lenin Vladimir: Russian Statesman: (1870-1924)
Lenin Vladimir was an activist and founding figure behind Bolsheviks party, who was appointed as founder of the USSR and directed it above 65 years. He studied from the University of St. Petersburg. Later his connection with revolutionary politics awarded him 3 years of exile in Siberia (1897). After that, he went to Switzerland (1900) and became the leader of Bolsheviks in 1905 in the abortive revolution. Unsatisfied with the very idea of 'Military communism ', Lenin established the New Industrial Policy in year 1921 permitting limited free venture.
