Karina Lombard (born on January 21, 1969 in Tahiti) is an actress.

Karina's mother is a Lakota Indian. Karina is a naturalized U.S. citizen, but when she was one, her father, who is of Russian, Italian and Swiss descent, took her to Barcelona, Spain. She later attended a number of Swiss boarding schools where she became fluent in Spanish, English, Italian, French, and German. She came to New York when she was 18 and began modeling and taking acting classes.

Karina was discovered during a Calvin Klein photo shoot with a Native American theme. One of her photographs was chosen to be a billboard ad.

Her theatre training and stage experience primarily comes from New York City's Gallery Theatre, the Neighborhood Playhouse, the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute and the Actors Studio.

As an actress, she appeared on the first season of The L Word, and also in The 4400. Karina will also appear on season 4 of The L Word later this year.
