Lindsay Monroe is a character from the TV series CSI: NY. She is portrayed by actress Anna Belknap.
Lindsay is a native of Bozeman, Montana. Her Midwestern manners, such as removing her shoes before entering a suspect's home, are a novelty to her co-workers. Because of her roots, she is particularly sensitive about cases in which the victim comes from a small town. Ten years before her arrival in New York, she was the lone witness to a multiple homicide in which four of her friends were killed (episode 312, "Silent Night"). This event is what both motivates and hinders her as a CSI, as it has also left some deep scars; she finds it difficult to talk to mothers of crime victims (episode 305, "Oedipus Hex"), and is particularly rattled by the sight of deceased girls.
Anna Belknap was born May 22, 1972 in Damariscotta, Maine, U.S. She joined the cast of CSI: NY during the second season starting in the episode "Zoo York" as Lindsay Monroe from Bozeman, Montana. She has also acted in NBC's "Law & Order", Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (as a rape victim in the episode "Manhunt"), Without a Trace ("Endgame" and "Showdown"), Medical Investigation, and The Handler. Her surname is pronounced "Bell nap." The "k" is silent.
