Katie Koster

Bio

Katie grew up in the town of Eastchester, part of Westchester County, NY (confused? stay with me: it gets better). There she had her first lead role as Minerva the Bear in Minerva the Bear, a Pre-Kindergarten production. She went on to sing and act in high school and then at Boston College, which is neither a college nor technically in Boston. At BC, to add to the paradox, she majored in Theater and Math. Some consider this an odd combination, until they find out she almost doubled in Theater and Physics.

After college, Katie returned to her favorite city (New York, of course) and embarked on the full-time two-year acting program at the William Esper Studio, studying the Meisner Technique under Joel Rooks and Suzanne Esper. She continued her singing by studying privately with Carolyn Paulus, acting in musicals, and joining a Swedish choir (and, no, she is not Swedish). More recently, she has discovered a love for improv and puppets and LOS ANGELES, where she now lives!
