Lin Chi-ling (Chinese: 林志玲; pinyin: Lín Zhìlíng; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lím Jî-Léng – born 29 November 1974, in Taipei, Taiwan), is a Taiwanese model and actress. Famed for her gentle demeanor and physical beauty, Lin has been referred to as "The First Face of Taiwan" by members of the Taiwanese media, and has been an official spokesperson for both China Airlines and Longines since 2006. Lin's meteoric rise to fame caused Taiwanese commentators and scholars to coin the phrase "The Lin Chi-Ling Phenomenon."
Lin's father, Lin Fan-nan (Chinese: 林繁男; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lím Hôan-lâm), and her mother, Wu Tzu-mei (traditional Chinese: 吳慈美; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ngô Chû-bí), are both from Tainan, in southern Taiwan. Following their marriage, they moved to Taipei where Lin and her elder brother Lin Chi-hong (traditional Chinese: 林志鴻; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lím Jî-hông) were born.
Lin attended Taipei Municipal Zhongzheng Junior High School and at the age of 15 was discovered by model talent scout Lin Chien-huan (Chinese: 林健寰; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lím Kiān-Khôan). She later attended Bishop Strachan School in Toronto, Canada, then attended the University of Toronto until 1997 when she completed a bachelor's degree, double-majoring in Western art history and economics.

After graduating from university, Lin returned to Taiwan. She intended to pursue a career in fine art and sought a position at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, but was turned away because she lacked a postgraduate degree in the field.
Lin continued doing part-time modeling work before leaving the business and working for a time as an administrative assistant for the Fubon Cultural and Educational Foundation. In 2000, Lin left Fubon and spent three months studying in Japan, then returned to Taiwan and began modeling with Catwalk Production House.
