Alexandra Bokova is a multifaceted and talented Russian-American actress, hailing from the historic city of Stavropol, Russia, where her hometown boasts a rich cultural heritage as a haven for Russian progressives, including the renowned writers Alexander Pushkin, Mikhail Lermontov, and Leo Tolstoy, who all resided there at some point. Notably, Stavropol is the first city in the North Caucasus region to establish a theater, the Stavropol Academic Theater of Drama, which has played a significant role in shaping the city's artistic identity.
Alexandra's greatest influence is her grandmother, Alla Bokova, a distinguished stage actress and a Distinguished Artist of the Russian Federation, who has had a profound impact on Alexandra's life and career. Growing up in an artistic environment, Alexandra was surrounded by the performing arts from a young age, which fostered her love and understanding of the craft.
As a child, Alexandra had the opportunity to host a children's TV show called Nezhniy Vozrast, which allowed her to develop her skills as a performer and gain valuable experience in front of the camera. As she entered her teenage years, Alexandra made the bold decision to immigrate to the United States, where she planned to pursue her other passion - working with human rights organizations.
After completing her Political Science degree from San Francisco State University, Alexandra's path took a turn back towards her artistic roots, where she landed the lead role in the film Mermaid Down, marking a significant milestone in her career as an actress.
