Primetime Creative Arts Emmys: Photos We Love

At four years old, Relinde de Graaff decided she wanted to act and never lost that feeling since. She learned to play the piano, started dancing and at the age of nine she began taking theatre lessons.

Relinde studied from 2004 to 2008 at the Maastricht Theatre Academy and the Real Escuela Superior de Arte Dramatico, where she learned to devise and perform her own work. She completed her studies in 2010 with the Specialist University Course in Film Acting at the "First Team Foundation" in Madrid, where she was taught by Assumpta Serna and Scott Cleverdon.

She performed on stage at numerous festivals in The Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain, Poland and Italy, most of them both devised and performed by herself and her colleagues.

Relinde performed in several (short) films and TV shows, and played the lead role in the alternate reality game 'The Iguanas' by Lumineus Filmproducties (2011). During the 48 Hour Project she was nominated three times as Best Actress, and with her role in Wesley Versteeg's award winning short film 'Lights Out' she won the Award for Best Actress at the Delta Shorts Competition - Film by the Sea International Film Festival 2012. She interpreted a white trash junkie, next to Raymond Thiry, in the short film 'Melany' of Ruben Broekhuis and Herman Slagter, that was released at the Nederlands Film Festival, that previously saw the premiere of the short film 'Kip!', in which she starred with Howard van Dodemont and Inge Ipenburg. Relinde also acted in several Scenarios4Summits movies and in the TV-movie Hemelrijken, directed by Stanley Kolk. The Dutch actress played parts in the TV-series 'Flikken Maastricht' and 'FC Kip', a feature of the TV-show 'De Dino Show'.

Relinde is also a scriptwriter and director of short movies. During her studies she produced the mockumentary ¡Hombre! in Spain, which won her the audience choice award at the Unifest Film Festival in Madrid. ¡Hombre! was shown at several film festivals in the Netherlands and abroad, and was broadcast on BNN's 101tv in 2009 and 2011. Relinde also wrote and directed the short film Infinite Memory, that won her a number of prizes. Infinite Memory was selected as one of five top student films at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. She wrote the screenplays for Kip! and Melany, two short films that premiered at the Nederlands Film Festival. She participated four times as a one-woman-team at the 48 Hour Film Festival Rotterdam, where she wrote, acted, filmed and edited the shorts all by herself. With one of the shorts she won the audience award.

Relinde de Graaff followed a voice actress course with Ben Maasdam. She does voice-overs for company movies, radio commercials, and animated series for Disney, the Cartoon Network, and others.

Relinde speaks Dutch, English, Spanish, German, French and knows the basics in Arabic.
