Although disowned by her family, she made her own name for herself as one of the world’s most famous archaeologists. This brought about a change in her as she discovered she possessed more ability and tenacity that she knew during this ordeal and cast off her role in British high society, choosing instead to travel the world in search of adventure, artifacts, and knowledge. Lara was the sole survivor of the plane crash and was forced to fend for herself through the harsh environment, eventually walking into the village of Tokakeriby two weeks later.

Inspired by both this experience and seeing as written account of his exploits she demanded to her parents that she be allowed to accompany him to Asia on an expedition. While she was there she gained an interest in both rock climbing and in archaeology, the latter after a lecture from famed archaeologist Werner Von Croy. Home-schooled until the age of eleven, she would attend Wimbledon Private School until the age of sixteen when her parents decided she should be enrolled in Gordonstoun, one of the highest caliber boarding schools in Europe. Lara had a fairly privileged upbringing, even so far as to attend finishing school to refine her manners. Lara was born on February 14, 1968, and is the only child of Lord Henshingly and Lady Croft.
