No part of this material may be copied or reproduced without prior consent of Celebrity Service International, LLC. Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest (October 18, 1957, Medford, OR), Emmy-nominated actor Jon Lindstrom developed a love for acting and music at an early age. He took that passion to the University of Oregon theater and music schools. Soon after, he moved to Los Angeles, where he studied with some of the most prominent acting teachers of the day, including Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler, Jeff Corey and the teacher he credits with influencing him the most, Bob McAndrew. Jon has since created the kind of diversified entertainment career that one can only define as a “multi-hyphenate.” An actor, writer, director, producer and musician, he has seen great success in every one of his artistic pursuits. In late 2008, Jon assumed the pivotal “tent-pole” character of ‘Craig Montgomery’ on CBS-TV’s long-established hit daytime drama, “As The World Turns.” The character of ‘Craig,’ with its long and colorful history, is considered one of the best men-you-love-to-hate roles in the history of TV soaps. In 2010, Jon received an Emmy nomination as Lead Actor In a Drama Series for his portrayal of ‘Craig.’ Jon may be best known for two multi-dimensional characters: the psychotic ‘Ryan Chamberlain’ and his endearing twin brother ‘Dr. Kevin Collins’ on ABC’s long-running powerhouse “General Hospital.” In fact, Lindstrom and his characters became so popular he was offered the male lead on the “GH” spin-off “Port Charles,” which enjoyed one of the largest openings of any daytime show ever.
