A 1" x 3" rubber stamp identifies the man in this photo. It reads " Ballet Theatre Foundation/Presents/AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE/Mikhail Baryshnikov, Artistic Director" A smiling Baryshnikov is wearing a light colored suit, striped shirt, and tie. He is leaning against a corner of a wall with is arms folded below his chest. Dim lights in the background and an archway over Baryshnikov's head lead to a guess that this is the interior of a theatre lobby.
