Katie
Holmes is a midwestern gal. She was always involved
with theatre in school, and although stardom often
crossed her mind, she didn't think it was a serious
possibility living in Ohio. She was very homegrown
and down to earth.
But she thought there was no harm in going to a
talent convention in New York City, where she was
spotted by a talent manager who got her to audition
for "The Ice Storm." She got the part of Libbets
Casey, a friend and love interest of lead actor
Tobey Maguire. Although her role was small, she
wowed audiences and critics alike. But, despite
the call of Hollywood and fame, she returned home
to the only home she ever knew, Toledo.
Her manager encouraged her to audition for the upcoming
series Dawson's Creek. So Katie sent in a video
tape, but opted out of going to LA for another audition,
as she instead preferred to act in her high school
production. The producers of Dawson's thought she
was worth the wait.
They got her tape and she got the role of Joey,
and the rest, as they say, is history. We all know
Katie Holmes beautiful face and she has set forth
to become a force in industry for years to come.
Katie graduated from Notre Dame Academy in June
of 1997 and began filming "Dawson's Creek" later
that summer. She has deferred admission to Columbia
University. She currently lives in Wilmington, NC,
where she has just bought a house. Katie has certainly
come a long way from dreaming about Hollywood in
front of her TV set, and it is a safe bet that she
has an exciting, successful, and interesting career
ahead of her. As Katie herself remarked in A Fanatic's
Guide to Dawson's Creek, It's overwhelming yesterday
I was just your average kid from Toledo. Now I have
my own web site." |
