KATIE O'GRADY got her start in acting when she was cast opposite Benicio Del Toro and Tommy Lee Jones in The Hunted; after an exciting nineteen day shoot, she learned the hard way what it means in Hollywood to be "cut." Bitten by the acting bug, Katie was next cast opposite Peter Paige and Kathy Najimy in Showtime's Say Uncle. She has worked with the makers of Napoleon Dynamite in their latest film Sasquatch Dumpling Gang (Candace Kane), she appeared in Untraceable with Diane Lane, and will soon be seen opposite Jennifer Aniston and Steve Zahn in Management (2008 Toronto Film Festival). She is currently in pre-production for a supporting role in the supernatural thriller, Disembodied, starring James Tupper.

Katie has also had several independent films on the 2008 Film Festival circuit, including The Auteur (Tribeca Film Festival, Athens International, Raindance in London and the Outfest LA) and her recent short film, Who's Goodlooking, brought her to the LA International Short Film Fest, the Beverly Hills Film Festival, and the Portland International Film Festival. She spends her free time traveling and playing the guitar to counterbalance the self-induced mania of being an actress!
