But being in front of the camera is far from Alexandra's only interest. Alexandra was honored by the ACLU of Southern California as their '2005 Activist of the Year' for her long history of fighting for the environment, voting rights and peace issues. In 1997, the United Nations commended Alexandra for her environmental activism. In 1999, she won the International Green Cross award.

She has traveled to Nicaragua with a medical aid group, to Lousiana to help animals after Hurricane Katrina, to South Africa to register voters and to Sierra Leone to promote family planning. She is also a certified EMT (Emergency Medical Technician), has been registering voters once a week for 15 years and speaks fluent French. A dedicated and accomplished athlete as well, in 1997, Alexandra spent nine months training for the World Ironman Triathlon Championships in Hawaii (a grueling 2.44 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, and 26.2 mile marathon), which she completed in 13:18:52. In June, Alexandra swam around Key West, a 12.5 mile race.

In 2000, Alexandra and her twin sister Caroline were the recipients of the Christopher Street West Rainbow Award for their ongoing support of gay and lesbian rights. In spite of her busy acting career, Alexandra continues to find time for social activism and athletic competition.
