With an illustrious career spanning 45 years, Lar Park Lincoln has etched an enduring legacy in film, television, and live performances. Beyond being a seasoned actress, she is the founder and CEO of Actors Audition Studios, headquartered in Dallas, Texas. Lar's contribution to television includes her memorable five-year portrayal of dual characters on "Knots Landing," where she collaborated with luminaries such as Michele Lee, William Devane, and Nicolette Sheridan. Her career continued when she secured the lead role in "Children of the Night," depicting the true story of a young teenage prostitute alongside Kathleen Quinlan and Mario Van Peebles. Lar earned the prestigious Bronze Halo award for her gritty portrayal in the film, for her outstanding contribution to the entertainment industry. Throughout her diverse career, Lar has graced guest star roles alongside notable figures such as Michael Landon, Angela Lansbury, Pat Morita, and Christina Applegate. Her presence has extended to The Oprah Winfrey Show (1986), Entertainment Tonight (1981), numerous local and syndicated talk and radio shows, countless podcasts, and magazine covers. Additionally, Lar served as a celebrity on-air guest for the QVC channel for an impressive 19 years, presenting beauty and travel products. Her own clothing line, the Piper Alexander Collection, a coordinating mother/daughter line named after her children, consistently sold out every season. Lar's personal journey has been marked by resilience, facing advanced breast cancer, navigating encounters with stalkers, and coping with the profound loss of both her husband and parents, all while raising her young children. Taking a hiatus from Los Angeles, Lar found solace upon her return to Texas, where she dedicated herself to nurturing her family. Today, Lar's daughter, Piper, follows in her footsteps as an actor and resides in France, while her son, Trevor, works in engineering and serves on the worship band at church. Lar takes pride in being a grandmother to three, with one girl and two identical twin boys. Continuing to leave her mark in the entertainment industry, Lar has recently completed five film projects. Simultaneously, she shapes the next generation of actors through Actors Audition Studios. With one published book, "Get Started, Not Scammed," and her second, "Slate: The Audition before the Audition," set to release in mid-January 2024, Lar is also in the process of completing her autobiography, "Lucky Girl." Her journey is a testament to resilience, creativity, and a passion for shaping the future of the entertainment world. - IMDb Mini Biography By: Grace Luiis Assistant to Ms Park Lincoln
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.
