Rebecca Knox, born and raised in New York, has joined the cast of Orange Is the New Black for its sixth season, airing July 27 on Netflix.

Playing new Litchfield inmate Tina Swope, Knox describes her character as a 'tough girl' who is determined to get 'what she wants at any cost'. When she’s not acting Knox lives with her family at their East Hampton hotel, The White Sands Resort, and helps spread the word about their Mezcal brand, Doña Sarita, as its vice-president - a role which has earned her a feature in Hamptons Magazine as a Young Influencer of 2017. Knox has also wrapped filming on two shorts, Strangers at Night and Cavity, the latter of which she wrote and edited herself.
