All All. Sign In. Linara Washington Actress Producer Writer. Play demo reel Linara Washington reel Linara Washington was born in the little town of Beaufort, SC to a beautiful Brazilian woman and an American son of a preacher man. Her mother spoke no English at the time, which has given Linara the added benefit of being fluent in Portuguese.

She is currently adding German to her list of languages and is hoping to conquer French, Italian, Japanese, and Hebrew. Her time in South Carolina was brief, as the next sixteen years were spent moving from college town to college town. All in all she has lived in over 14 states and short stint in Brasil when she was still a baby.

During a three-year stop in St. While at Blake she had the pleasure of attending many shows at the famous Guthrie Theatre which coincidentally was located just one block from the school as well having participated in the Dudley Riggs Improvisational Theater's enrichment program for high school aged youth. Mighty Ducks 2 was filmed at the high schools skating rink and it was no surprise to anyone that Linara made every effort possible to be a part of the production.

Though she was only an extra at the time the experience definitely left its mark helping to spark the desire to be in the movies. An excellent math and science student, Linara initially decided to pursue those interests rather than acting. The oldest of three girls, her parents probably would have disowned her had she not pursued a more "practical" course of study and been a proper role model for her younger siblings.

She was accepted at the prestigious University of Chicago where started her courses as a Pre-med Biology major. But, as with all things that are meant to be, she soon found herself taking a number of writing classes and participating in the campus's theater productions.
