Kate Maberly was born and raised in Surrey, England, where she began her acting career at the tender age of 8, landing her first major motion picture role as the star of Francis Ford Coppola's "The Secret Garden". Directed by Agnieszka Holland, the film achieved international acclaim and has since become a beloved family classic.
Following this success, Kate made the transition to the United States, taking on a variety of leading roles, including 'Dinah' in Stephen King's "The Langoliers" alongside David Morse and Patricia Wettig, and 'Glumdalclitch' in "Gulliver's Travels" with Ted Danson, Kristen Scott Thomas, and Mary Steenburgen.
Back in England, Kate continued to work on a range of high-caliber period dramas for the BBC, including the Bafta-winning "Anglo-Saxon Attitudes" with Kate Winslet and Daniel Craig, the Bafta/Golden Globe-winning "The Last of the Blond Bombshells" with Judi Dench and Ian Holm, the Emmy-winning "Victoria & Albert", the Bafta-winning "Daniel Deronda" directed by Tom Hooper, and the enchanting Hollywood blockbuster "Finding Neverland" with Johnny Depp and Dustin Hoffman.
In addition to her screen work, Kate has also taken to the stage, playing the roles of Shakespeare's 'Juliet' and 'Mathilde' in Christopher Hampton's "Total Eclipse" at the Royal Court Theatre in London, alongside Ben Wishaw and Matthew Macfadyen.
Kate has also pursued her passion for music, achieving double-honors in Classical Piano and Cello from the prestigious London Conservatoire Trinity College of Music. She has composed and produced her own music, including songs for film, and has even produced and directed music videos while in college, utilizing the facilities of the London Film Schools.
Now based in Hollywood, Kate has spent the last few years building a library and developing a slate of high-quality features, including the post-apocalyptic adventure love story "The Forest of Hands and Teeth", based on the New York Times best-selling novel by Carrie Ryan.
