Biography: 
Born and raised in Connecticut, the green eyed beauty began modeling with the Elite Modelling Agency and appearing in TV ads as a child.  Katherine has two older brothers, Holt and Jason; and older sister, Meg.  Her brother Jason died when Katherine was young.  After making her film debut in That Night (1992), Katherine balanced movie work with high school, playing a small role in Steven Soderbergh's Depression-era drama, King of the Hill (1993).  Then she beat out Alicia Silverstone as Gerard Depardieu's difficult daughter in My Father, the Hero (1994).  Katherine headed to Los Angeles after graduated from New Canaan High School class of 1996 to make acting her full-time job.  Following a leading role in Wish Upon a Star (1996) and a small part as a Rita Hayworth stand-in in Stand-Ins (1997), Katherine made a foray into horror with Bug Buster (1998) and Bride of Chucky (1998). Branching out into television, the half Irish and half German actress co-starred with Peter Fonda in a Shakespeare via Civil War reworking of The Tempest (1998). Benefiting from the late-'90s wave of youth-driven TV shows, Katherinel stayed with television and auditioned for all 3 female leads on "Roswell" before being cast as Isabel.
