Mini Biography

Born in New York City, Kristina Klebe (pronounced "Kleeb") spent much time overseas with her family in Germany, France and Italy. With an ability to speak all of the above languages due to her European heritage, she jokes she sometimes can't decide whether she feels more European or more like a New Yorker. Kristina went to high school in New York City and graduated from Dartmouth College cum laude with a major in Politics and a minor in Theater/Film. And no, she didn't plan on being a politician... She gave up being a competitive equestrian for a more complete immersion in theater in her teens.

Her acting career began on several noteworthy off- Broadway stages. Ranging from characters such as Juliet in "Romeo & Juliet," Beatrice in "The Servant of Two Masters," Dorimene in "The Bourgeois Gentleman," Mary in "On The Verge," and Jill in "The Big Funk," she has worked at Soho Rep, The Public Theater, NY Theater Workshop, 59E59, The Jean Cocteau Repertory and the Underwood Theater in NYC. Her first foray into acting, however, was when she was 7 and she and her best friend would write musical sketches and perform them for an admiring parental audience.

Although Klebe cherishes the art of acting as her true passion, she also freelances as a videographer and is working on her own documentary. She is the co-creator of the web series "FRICK" which has been getting great buzz from tastemakers in that emerging medium. On the side, she has been working with a charity called French-American Aid for Children for over 10 years while also acting as a volunteer and foster parent at Best Friends Animal Society and Much Love Animal Rescue. Her other hobbies include horseback riding, diving (she is a rescue diver), writing poetry, traveling, and listening to music.

She was recently accepted into the Grad Film Program at NYU.
