Imagine a childhood spent in the shadow of Kris Kristofferson, a former golden gloves boxer, helicopter pilot, and Rhodes Scholar who went on to become one of the finest singer-songwriters to come out of Nashville. Additionally, he has a prominent role in several Hollywood projects, including Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, Alice Doesn’t Live In this Anymore, Heaven’s Gate, and the Blade trilogy.
Conversely, if your father attended Oxford University before penning such timeless songs as Help Me Make It Through the Night, For the Good Times, Sunday Morning Coming Down, Why I, The Silver Tongued Devil and I, and Bob Dylan’s They Killed Him, as well as joining Willie Nelson,
You simply need to inherit one of his numerous skills to have an advantage over your peers, like Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings did as The Highwaymen, a supergroup of country musicians.
If they’re appearing on stage, face-to-face with a camera, in a wrestling ring, or the legal system, each of Kristofferson’s eight children carries on his songwriting or acting tradition in their unique manner.

The actor and producer, who graduated from Stanford, is listed on IMDB as having worked on the movies A Place to Grow (1995), Night of the Cyclone (1990), and Trouble in Mind (1985).
