Leah Cairns is a Canadian film and television actor.
Cairns grew up in Kamloops, B.C., with dreams of becoming a professional dancer. Those dreams were dashed when she broke her back in a car accident at 16. When her dance team went to an international competition in her graduating year, rather than stay at home, she headed off to Costa Rica, starting an eight-year backpacking odyssey that took her to 36 countries. Prior to returning to Canada, she stumbled into an improv class at an ashram in India, where she began her acting career.
Cairns owns a long haired chihuahua named "Godiva".
Cairns has appeared in CTV’s comedy series Robson Arms. She has also appeared as a regular on the recently cancelled Canadian CITY-TV comedy series Godiva's, as 'Jenna', a waitress & dancer.
Cairns first appeared as Racetrack in the Re-imagined Series season one episode, "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II", initially intended as a one-episode character. However, the production team liked Cairns' performance so much that Racetrack became a recurring role.
Cairns will also be appearing opposite actor Al Pacino in the upcoming feature film 88 Minutes, as well as in a recurring role on the new TNT television series Saved.
