Louise Linton was born in Scotland, where her passion for the stage was evident from a young age. At just six years old, she took on her first title role, marking the beginning of her dedication to the craft. She went on to attend the prestigious Edinburgh Drama Academy and later earned the coveted Honors Certificate from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts.
After completing her education, Louise embarked on a humanitarian journey, volunteering in Zambia for six months during the Second Congolese War. Her experience inspired her to write a book about her time there.
Louise then relocated to Los Angeles, where she quickly made a name for herself in the entertainment industry. She secured roles in various projects, including the indie feature "BANKING ON LOVE", a guest spot on the hit TV show "CSI: NY", and the FOX and FUEL TV sketch comedy show "THE DAILY HABIT".
Her breakthrough role came when Robert Redford cast her in the United Artists film "LIONS FOR LAMBS", starring Tom Cruise and Meryl Streep. She then landed a lead role in the Roy Lee thriller "THE ECHO" and joined the cast of the indie comedy "SCREWBALL". Her subsequent roles included a part in the global detective series "COLD CASE" and the film "CREW TO CREW", which was set in Rome.
Following her return to Los Angeles, Louise booked the female lead in "SCAVENGERS" opposite Sean Patrick Flanery. She then completed a role in the comedy "SHE WANTS ME" alongside Charlie Sheen, Josh Gad, and Hillary Duff. Her next project was the film "THE POWER OF FEW", opposite Christopher Walken and Christian Slater, which was shot in Louisiana.
In the spring of 2011, Louise filmed the Lifetime movie "WILLIAM & KATE", a biographical drama about the Royal couple. She then spent the summer on stage in New York, starring in the Off-Broadway show "MANIPULATION" at the famous Cherry Lane Theater. After her time in New York, Louise traveled to Alabama to shoot the Hallmark Hall of Fame's award-winning feature "A SMILE AS BIG AS THE MOON".
In June, Louise will film the lead role in the psychological thriller "INTRUDER", opposite John Robinson, in Oregon. In July, she will play the female lead in the romantic comedy "SERIAL DATERS ANONYMOUS".
