She went to a Catholic school for girls, Notre Dame Academy. In high school, she began to be interested in acting, where she performed in school plays. At age 16, she took part in a fashion show in New York. She made a very good impression and was invited to Los Angeles to audition for the film "The Ice Storm". My father was against it, but after persuasion family and friends finally agreed to leave her daughter to California. The beginnings of acting as most were, however, very difficult. Kate coped with the role and committed an error by mistake. However, the film appealed to the audience. Upon completion Katie returned to Ohio to finish high school.
