Born in New York City, Lindley began his career on several TV movies such as The Gentleman Bandit and Mr. Griffin and Me as well as 12 episodes of the TV series Nurse.

In 1999, his work on Pleasantville was honoured by three nominations from the Satellite Awards and the Online Film Critics Society.
