Who is Heather Lind? Wiki Bio
Heather Lind was born in Upland, Pennsylvania USA, on 22 March 1983, so under the zodiac sign of Aries and holding American nationality – she is popular for her career as an actress, especially for her role of Anna Strong in “Turn: Washington’s Spies” TV series.
Childhood and education
Heather spent part of her childhood in Upland, and part in Guilderland, New York alongside her identical twin sister Christina Bennett Lind who is an actress as well – they haven’t spoken much about their parents as they appreciate their privacy and do not want them involved in media.

She was also interested in working on her education – after she matriculated from high school, Heather enrolled at Fordham University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2005. She went on to obtain her Master of Fine Arts degree in acting from the New York University’s Graduate Acting Program.
Career of an actress
Heather launched her acting career as soon as she got her master’s degree – she began appearing in theatre plays such as the Shakespeare in the Park production “The Merchant of Venice”, playing the daughter of Shylock named Jessica while Shylock was played by the popular actor Al Pacino – the two were rewarded with the theatre world award for the outstanding Broadway or off-Broadway debut performance in the 2010 – 2011 season. She went on to land her first role in a TV series when she played Mellissa Samuels in “Blue Bloods” in 2011, and in the same year in “Boardwalk Empire” , “Sleepy Hollow” in 2014, and “The Walker” in 2015.
She is mostly recognized for her role of Anna Strong in the “Turn: Washington’s Spies” TV series, of which she was a part from 2014 to 2017 – her latest role in a TV series was in “The Good Fight” in 2018.

Controversy: Accusing the ex-president
In October 2017, as part of the MeToo campaign, Heather accused George H. W. Bush, the former President of the United States of America, of sexual assault – she stated that he touched her from behind while she was posing for a photo and that he told her a dirty joke. This statement was uploaded onto her Instagram account, but which she later deleted.
The ex-president’s spokesman addressed the matter and explained that Bush is tied to his wheelchair and has little strength in his arm which occasionally falls down from people’s waists while taking pictures – the president keeps telling the same old joke when that happens, to keep the people at ease.
