Kaitlyn Jenea Cecil was born on the 30th of July 1993, in Wheeling, West Virginia, but has spent most of her childhood in Weddington, North Carolina. From the time Katie could talk, she was performing for her family, as well as an assortment of stuff animals and baby dolls. Her parents first noticed she had very special talents at the age of five when they heard her singing "Part of Your World" from The Little Mermaid while she was bathing, and thought it was a CD playing in her room. She hasn't stop singing since, and her favorite place to perform is still the shower. When Katie was eight, she finally convinced her mom that she "needed an agent so she could study acting and singing for two years, then audition for two years, so she could `make it' by the time she was 12." Katie met with local agencies and eventually signed with an agency in Charlotte, as well as Hot Shot Kids/Teens in Atlanta, Georgia, where many famous young actors have received their start, and where Katie did regional work as an actress and model. At ten, Katie caught the attention of agents and managers in NY and LA, at a national talent event. She spent the summer of 2004 in NYC working with her management company and her agency, where she booked an as yet unreleased feature film entitled "Serial" with writer/director Kevin Arbouet, whose prior projects include "Monster's Ball" with Oscar winner Halle Berry. After many flights back and forth between North Carolina and New York City, her parents were advised to take Katie to Los Angeles during pilot season. Katie and her mom spent eight weeks in California during this process, at which time she booked her first pilot. The WB's untitled Chuck Ranberg-Anne Flett-Giordano comedy starred "The Practice" alumna Camryn Manheim as a single mother with three kids who moves into a new neighborhood filled with soccer moms. Katie played Ms. Manheim's youngest daughter on the pilot. Returning to LA in the fall after spending the summer back home in North Carolina, Katie has booked guest appearances on two of televisions hottest shows
* "Medium" (The Reckoning, episode #2.10) and "Criminal Minds" (What
Fresh Hell - episode # 1.12). Katie's parents are Terri and Curt Cecil, and Katie is the younger sister of nineteen year old Megan Cecil, whom Katie idolizes, and who attends college in North Carolina. Katie is represented by Innovative Artists in New York and Los Angeles, and is managed by Weissman Brunson Management - NY and LA.
