Lewinsky was born in San Francisco, California, and raised in an affluent family in Los Angeles’ Westside Brentwood neighborhood and later in Beverly Hills.

Vilensky, Lewinsky’s maternal grandpa, was a Lithuanian Jew, and Bronia Poleshuk, her maternal grandmother, was born to a Russian Jewish family in the British Concession of Tianjin, China. In 1988, Lewinsky’s parents split and each remarried.

The family was members of the Sinai Temple in Los Angeles, and Lewinsky was a student at Sinai Akiba Academy, the Temple’s connected school. She went to the John Thomas Dye School in Bel-Air for her primary education.

She began her studies at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon, in 1993, and graduated in 1995 with a bachelor’s degree in psychology.
