<span style="color: #000000 !important;font-size: 14pt">Irina Pantaeva invited Janet Gardner and crew to Siberia to help honor her ancestors after ten years in the West.</span>
<span style="color: #000000 !important;font-size: 14pt">During her time in the West, Irina became a favorite model of Irving Penn and a natural for extreme Asian type shoots.</span>
<span style="color: #000000 !important;font-size: 14pt">After publication of her autobiography, Pantaeva - a former Buryat tribeswoman - hopes to educate the world about their culture while bringing attention to their endangered language. She is shown here with her son Ruslan.</span>
