Christina Bennett Lind (born March 22, 1983) is an actress notable for her role as Bianca Montgomery in ABC's soap opera All My Children. She has an identical twin sister named Heather Lind who is also an actress.
Christina Bennett Lind was born in Upland, Pennsylvania.
Lind attended public school through grade school and went to a private University, Fordham University. She also attended New York State Summer School for the Arts both as a visual artist as well as a performing artist. She states that this was "a big part of my decision to follow the arts as a career."
Her first acting role was Viola in Twelfth Night, with her twin sister, Heather, playing the role of her twin brother, Sebastian. It was the first production that came out of her English teacher's idea to start a drama club in middle school. She was in 8th grade. However, before that, her sisters and her spent countless summers making theatre, dance, and music in a big red barn in Nova Scotia that was a part of her grandparent's property. "We took it very seriously. We all claim it as some of our finest work, and, in seriousness, the start of our lives as artists and art advocates," she explains. Christina's first job on screen was a short film a college friend made on 35mm film, and she played a ventriloquist doll. Her first television job was As the World Turns as a college buddy of one of the regulars, Billy Magnussen; the character's name was Ari.
In 2009 she was the editor for the Short, Comedy, Drama film Love Like a Wheel.
Lind played the role of the iconic Bianca Montgomery on All My Children from June 2010 to September 2011, until the show's cancellation on network television.
