Jimena Lindo

Biography

Jimena Lindo Biondi (born on December 9, 1976, in Lima) is a professional actresss, dancer, and television presenter. She is one of Peru’s most beautiful and gifted actresses, frequently appearing in leading roles in the country’s cinema, though her primary work is in theater, with television playing a secondary role. In the latter medium, she hosted the long-running program "Video Bizarro" on a local cable channel; the show featured interviews with filmmakers and showcased their short films—produced across various formats—and, prior to the debut of the program "El placer de los ojos," it was the only show of its kind on Peruvian television. After studying Philosophy and Literature in Lima (2002–2006), she relocated to Barcelona to study photography, while making occasional trips back to Peru for various film projects. She has held central roles in No se lo digas a nadie (1998), directed by Francisco Lombardi; El bien esquivo (2001), by Augusto Tamayo; Condominio (2006), by Jorge Carmona; and La prueba (2006), by Judith Vélez.
