Catherine was born in the vibrant city of London, but her life took a dramatic turn when she was just two years old, as her Iranian mother made the bold decision to relocate to California, setting the stage for an exciting and unconventional childhood.
Growing up, Catherine's mother served as her personal assistant, a role that would continue to play an important part in her life even as she ventured into the world of entertainment.
As a young girl, Catherine's talents were already beginning to shine, as she landed roles in various television advertisements, laying the groundwork for a future in the spotlight.
When it came time to pursue higher education, Catherine enrolled at the prestigious University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA),where she studied biology and pre-medicine, with the intention of eventually becoming a medical professional.
However, Catherine's path took an unexpected turn when she decided to drop out of college and pursue a career in modeling, with Japan serving as the backdrop for her early modeling endeavors.
Following her stint in the world of modeling, Catherine made the transition back to acting, landing a role in a Mexican commercial for American Express, a gig that marked the beginning of a new chapter in her acting career.
One of her most notable roles came when she worked as the nude body double for the legendary actress Isabella Rossellini in the 1992 film Death Becomes Her, a experience that had a profound impact on her life, as it was during the filming of this movie that she met her future husband, Adam Beason, who was serving as the assistant to director Robert Zemeckis.
Today, Catherine and her husband reside near Los Angeles with their two children, daughter Gemma Beason and son Ronan Beason, a family that has been together since 2018.
