Linda D Gaines

Linda D. Gaines is a versatilely trained Actress, who possesses many unique perspectives, setting her performance capabilities apart from the crowd. Born and raised in Providence, R.I., the eldest of four siblings, Grandparents played a significant role in family life, as both resided in close proximity-and lived to the ripe ages 96 &100! Linda caught the acting bug early-playing the lead role of the Gingerbread Lady in her First Grade's Spring musical! Attending Theater often with her Parents-at the renowned Trinity Repertory Company, in Providence, R.I. exemplified to Linda first-hand what performance excellence looked like. Supportive family members made sacrifices throughout her formative years to help this self-described natural born Actress in many performance endeavors. Linda went on to receive a BFA degree in Dramatic Arts, from Emerson College, Boston. Having a vast plethora of characters within her range perhaps stems partly from a former career in the Airline Industry. Adulthood experiences have included dramatic studies, residing, and child rearing her daughter in England. Vast experience further supplanted perspective in capturing character nuances, and furthermore subtle familiarity with unusual environs. Hobbies include teaching Yoga, Boating, Cycling, Horseback Riding, nature Walks, Tour Guidance, and Cooking. Linda's personally created mantra-of self care, (Soul Balm) & her WITS...(Wings In Tandem Soaring) keep Linda's positivity in practice-and dependability at the ready!
