IN SHORT
At age six, she started taking ballet. At twenty-six, she received a PhD with honours from Paris-Dauphine. After a stint in Denver, she returned to work her way up at a leading bank, taking the helm of her father’s business school and turning it into a group. Following the tragic loss of her husband, she focused on the fight for gender equality – and on the two sons she adores. Such is the life of Yasmine Benamour, who still performs ballet.
