Katherine Joan Taylor never played Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz," but at nine years old, she portrayed a munchkin, palace guard, Oz citizen, and the Wicked Witch of the East in Bob and Dorothy Antrim's Salt Lake City production. Since relocating to LA, she has continued to expand her range, taking on diverse roles in numerous films, including mothers both dysfunctional and kind, a detective, a teacher, a reporter, and notably, a psychopath. She holds a B.F.A. from the University of Utah's Actor Training Program, where she studied under Kenneth Washington, who also taught at Juilliard. Early in her career, she played Lulu in Wedekind's First Lulu for Milwaukee's Theatre X, the theater where Willem Dafoe began his career. She also starred as the title character in Milwaukee Repertory Theater's Everyman. When the production was invited to premiere at the Shanghai Grand Theater in China, Katherine had the honor of performing Everyman before a Chinese audience—the first time the play was performed in China. In early 2020, she wrote two short films: the drama Sara, which she directed and was produced by Gareth Williams (Mindhunter), and the horror film You Know How This Goes, in which she starred. More recently, she appeared in the horror short I Am Not Okay. Beyond acting, writing, and directing, she enjoys yoga, weightlifting, running, playing guitar, riding roller coasters, and volunteering with the homeless. She lives with her husband Brad Arnold, their son Stellan Arnold (named after actor Stellan Skarsgård), and two playful cats.
