Born two months premature at four pounds, Kate Noelle Holmes made her first appearance on December 18, 1978, in Toledo, Ohio. Her parents, Martin and Kathleen, say that Katie Holmes's strong-willed personality is probably from being born premature. Being the youngest in the Katie Holmes clan, completing the family of three other sisters and one brother, Katie Holmes was always the baby. As a teenager, Katie Holmes began attending modeling school. When she was sixteen, Katie Holmes's teacher invited her to go to a modeling competition with other girls from her class.
Katie Holmes competed in the International Modeling and Talent Association by singing, dancing, and reciting a monologue from To Kill a Mockingbird (1962). By the end of that time in New York, Katie won many awards. But Katie Holmes said she didn’t want to model because it wasn’t challenging enough. So when Katie Holmes was seventeen, Katie Holmes went to Los Angeles to audition for movies. Luckily, on her second audition, Katie Holmes was cast in the movie, The Ice Storm (1997), directed by Ang Lee. Katie Holmes’s character was Libbets Casey, a rich New Yorker, who is pursued by two of the main characters. It was a small part, but it marked the beginning of her professional acting career.
