Karina - who you may remember from her role in Legends of the Fall - was born January 21, 1969 in Tahiti. Lombard is an exceptionally well-travelled woman, having lived in Barcelona with her father at a young age and attending boarding schools throughout Europe. She is also quite accomplished and speaks five languages (English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish), sings, dances, and writes songs.

Lombard began modelling, dancing and acting at New York City's Gallery Theatres and the Neighborhood Playhouse Theatre. Her training at the Strasberg Institute and the Actors Studio prepared Lombard for several stage performances. Karina's screen roles to date have been small but memorable performances in high-profile films such as The Doors, Legends of the Fall, and The Firm.
