Born on July 11th, 1962, in the vibrant city of Berlin, Germany, a young and ambitious individual named Hanold-Lynch made the bold decision to leave her family home at the tender age of 16, opting to finance her own education in pursuit of her dreams.
As she navigated her early years, Hanold-Lynch soon discontinued her studies at the esteemed Free University in Berlin, instead choosing to venture to the iconic city of New York, where she enrolled at the renowned Neighborhood Playhouse School of Theatre.
Under the guidance of the esteemed method teacher Tony Greco, Hanold-Lynch dedicated several years to honing her craft, followed by further studies at Columbia University's Graduate Film Program, where she had the privilege of learning from the accomplished Leonore de Koven.
As a founding member of a theatrical group, Hanold-Lynch took to the stage, and her passion for performance only continued to grow. Her personal life was marked by a marriage to James E. Lynch, a union that would later come to an end, although she chose to retain his name.
In 1994, Hanold-Lynch made the decision to return to her hometown of Berlin, where she would go on to spend the next decade working tirelessly as an on-set acting coach for numerous film and television productions.
