Biography Filmography Links Contact Galleries
Date of birth: 24 November 1978,
Birth Place: New Canaan, Connecticut, USA
Katherine Marie Heigl was born in Washington D.C,
USA on the 24th November 1978 to parents Nancy and Paul. A short time
afterwards, the Heigl family moved to New Canaan, Connecticut - where
Katherine was to spend the majority of her childhood.
The youngest member of her family, Katherine or "Katie" as she
is known affectionately, has two elder siblings, John and Meg. Tragically,
older brother Jason died when Katherine was young - an event that she
cites as giving her a greater perspective and appreciation for life.
Katherine was first thrust into the limelight as
a child model. An aunt, visiting the family in New Canaan, took a number
of photographs of her niece, then aged 9 - in series of poses to advertise
a hair care product she had invented. Upon returning to New York, with
permission from Katherine's parents, she sent the photos to a number of
modelling agencies. Within a few weeks Katherine had been signed to Wilhelmina,
a renowned international modelling agency.
Almost immediately, she made her debut in a magazine
advertisement, and soon followed this with an inaugural television appearance
in a national commercial for Cheerios breakfast cereal. Following a number
of commercials and modelling assignments for Sears and Lord & Taylor,
Katherine made her big-screen debut in "That Night" (1992),
which starred Juliette Lewis and C. Thomas Howell. It was then that she
realised that acting rather than modelling was her passion.
