On television, she starred as Alexis Carrington in The CW’s Dynasty reboot and has appeared in fan-favorite series such as Friends, NCIS: Los Angeles, Criminal Minds, and Two and a Half Men. Most recently, she reunited with Lindsay Lohan in Disney’s Freakier Friday and was a finalist on Dancing with the Stars (Season 34).

Her stage credits include Hello, Dolly!, Steel Magnolias, and A Streetcar Named Desire, and she is a co-producer of the Off-Broadway hit Ginger Twinsies. Beyond performing, Hendrix co-authored the wellness book Don’t Worry, Eat Happy and is an award-winning advocate for animal rights, LGBTQ+ equality, women’s rights, and environmental justice.

A Tennessee native now based in Atlanta, Hendrix lives with her six rescue animals who are fairly certain they run the house.
