Kathryn Morris

 ( Actresses From Cincinnati ) 

She attended two colleges in the Philadelphia Delaware Valley, Northeastern Christian Junior College and Temple University. After studying theatre in high school, she was involved in a hit-and-run collision while on her way to her first acting gig, a Japanese music video based on the musical Grease. She still made it to the gig and that's when she knew she was going to be an actress.

Morris was in a relationship with actor Johnny Messner. On April 8, 2013, Morris announced they were expecting twins. She gave birth to twin boys, who were diagnosed with Autism spectrum when they were three years old. In October 2021, Morris launched The Savants: an initiative to "revolutionize how the world lives on and off the spectrum".

After seeing her in the film The Contender (which DreamWorks distributed), Steven Spielberg cast her in two successive films. Her scenes as a rock star in A.I. Artificial Intelligence, which required Morris to take intensive singing and guitar lessons were cut from the film by the director, which was particularly agonizing for her. In Minority Report, she portrayed the tormented wife of Tom Cruise's character. Spielberg: Don't Hate Me, from the June 24, 2002, column by Marc S. Malkin in New York In Step With...
