She is 5'9 1/2" tall and her natural hair colour is light brown. She knew she wanted to become a model when she was 12 years old. She got into the modeling industry when she was discovered by a talent agent at the 1978 Miss Teen Niagara Contest. She later moved to New York City and signed with Elite Model Management there. She then moved to Paris, France to further her career. She has also appeared in music videos with George Michael.
Along with Christy Turlington, Claudia Schiffer, Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell, Linda is regarded as one of the few, true supermodels that changed the face of fashion in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Linda is known as The Chameleon, both for her frequent hair changes (style, length and colour) and for the way she could transform in front of a camera. Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld once said of her, "There is not another model in the world as professional as she is."
When she is not on the catwalk she is an advocate for breast cancer awareness. In 1996 she won the VH1 Fashion Awards Lifetime Achievement Award. She has a star on the Canada's Walk of Fame in Toronto.
