Katherine

Katie Heigl was born on November 24 1978 in Washington DC, raised in New Canaan Conneticuit with her brothers and older sister. (One of her older brothers, Jason, has passed away. :( )

Katherine had amazing personality and beauty even as a young child. She started out as a child model with the famous Elite Modelling Agency and did multiple Sears catalog shoots. At age 12 she won her first film role in " That Night" and was in other films over the next 2 years. In 1994 she was catapulted into the lime light playing a disgruntled teen in "My Father the Hero" opposite French actor, Gerard Depardieu. She went on to star in the action film "Under Seige 2: Dark Territory". It gave her even more exposure and soon afterwards, she graduated high school, intent on a film career in LA.

After Katherine became involved in the made-for-TV movie "The Tempest", starring with Peter Fonda, she auditioned for all 3 female leads in the hit sci-fi drama "Roswell". Little did she know that despite all her past success, nothing could prepare her for "Roswell Fandom".

Katie plays "Isabel Evans" and alien who has been hiding her identity from all, but her closest friends and running from the law and foreign un-friendlies. One of only 4 survivors of the "Rpswell Incident" of 1947, she lay in incubation for decades, far into the New Mexico desert. Her life has always been compicated, not unlike her personality.

"Isabel" has a wonderful heart and is extraordinarily protective when it comes to those she loves. Smart and beautiful she plays the role of a human to perfection, but inside she is plagued by self doubt. She has grown through the contact with her human buds and especially her late boyfriend "Alex" (Colin Hanks) and finally learns to love and trust herself. Katherine truly does play this role to perfection. Her unique style and humor when playing the more scatty "Isabel" and her focus when playing the deceptive alter ego "Lonnie"show that she is an actress with great range, born to shine.

Heigl's other feature film credits include: "Prince Valiant", "Stand-Ins", "Whish Upon a Star", "100 Girls" and "Valentine" (2001) with Denise Richards and David Boreanaz.
