Katherine Noelle Holmes was born December 18, 1978, in Toledo, Ohio. The youngest of five children, Katie had no intention of becoming an actress while growing up in Toledo, but her mother enrolled her into Margaret O`Brien`s Modeling School, which ultimately led Katie to her present career. During her summer vacation from Notre Dame Academy, Katie, now seventeen years old, attended a modeling convention in New York City. At the convention, a talent scout from Los Angeles encouraged Katie to spend the rest of the summer in California auditioning. Katie went to Hollywood with her mother to try her luck at acting, despite skepticism from her father. Luck was definitely on her side, since Katie`s feature film debut took only one audition. Inexperienced and tinged with naivet?she was cast in The Ice Storm alongside Tobey Maguire. After filming The Ice Storm, Katie returned to Toledo to complete high school. She was apparently offered the role of Buffy in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television show, but she declined in order to graduate high school. With a film credit and a newfound passion for acting, she dedicated her summer to starring in a local theatre production of Damn Yankees. That`s when Katie heard a rumor that Kevin Williamson of Scream Katie Holmes nude pictures fame was casting actors for his television teenage drama. With nothing to lose, Katie sent in her home video audition (made in her basement while her mother played Dawson) and hoped for the best. And that`s what the Dawson`s Creek screenwriter/producer saw when he watched her tape: the best. Williamson immediately invited Katie to come to the West Coast, Katie Holmes naked pics but due to her commitment to Damn Yankees, she asked Williamson whether the offer could be postponed to a later date. Obviously worth the wait, he rescheduled so that Katie could attend. Williamson didn`t need acting experience credits to convince him that Katie was right for the part of Joey Potter for Dawson`s Creek. She was immediately Katie Holmes naked pictures cast as the girl from the wrong side of the creek in the series that was garnering rave reviews even before it premiered. Viewers have since tuned in to Katie Holmes and the high school drama since 1998, watching the cast of angst-ridden teens deal with teenage life. Based on the success of Dawson`s Creek and its popularity among teens, Katie was cast in the thriller Disturbing Behavior in 1998. The next summer, Katie could be seen in Katie Holmes nude pics theatres in two feature films; Go, and as the heroine in Teaching Mrs. Tingle (also directed by Williamson). While still roaming the halls of high school in Dawson`s Creek, Katie appeared in Wonder Boys, starring Michael Douglas and her Ice Storm co-star, Tobey Maguire. Currently living in Wilmington, NC, where the television series is filmed, Katie is dating actor Chris Klein. She deferred her acceptance to Columbia University until she has more time in her hectic acting schedule.
