Kristanna Sommer Loken was born in Ghent, New York, to Rande (Porath) and Merlin "Chris" Loken. She is of half Norwegian and half German descent. She began her modeling career at the early age of 15.
Encouraged by her mother, who was a model prior to her daughter's
birth, Kristanna's modeling career, as well as her aspirations in
acting brought her to New York where she now resides. The glamorous
actress/ model seems to have stayed true to her roots: her father owns an apple farm in upstate New York where he writes novels
and screenplays. Aside from establishing herself as a supermodel with
an Elite contract, Kristanna has made numerous television appearances
as well as what could be her breakthrough film role in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003) opposite
Arnold Schwarzenegger, released in 2003.
