Alias:
Norma Blake Lindsley Schlei
Birthplace:
Los Angeles, California, USA

Blake Lindsley practically grew up around acting for most of her life. Born on December 19, 1973 in Los Angeles, in 1986, while attending the Westlake School for girls, she acted in school plays. At this time, Blake was also a Varsity member of the Equestrian Team. Shortly following her graduating from high school in 1992, Blake enrolled at Yale University as a theatre major. During her time in college she performed in numerous plays. She focused her studies on dramatic literature at Yale. Upon graduating from Yale, Blake received the Saybrook Master's Prize for the Arts. Her career in acting spans well over 20 years, appearing across both movie and television screens in a variety of films and television series. She is a competitive horseback rider and has won many championships including the prestigious Foxfield medal finals in 2010. She lives in the Hollywood Hills with her husband, producer Stephen Nemeth, their son Lincoln and daughter Louise.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
