Biography

Catherine, a multifaceted creative individual with a rich tapestry of experiences, emerged from the vibrant city of Manhattan, where her formative years were intricately woven amidst a dynamic environment that was both shaped and influenced by her television executive father and artist mother. The family's frequent relocations, which took them to various destinations including Minnesota and Massachusetts, had a profound and lasting impact on her life, serving as a catalyst for her artistic development and fostering a sense of adaptability, resilience, and creativity that would stay with her throughout her life.

Catherine, a multifaceted creative force, has left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry through her impressive body of work as a writer, director, and actress.

During the unprecedented and challenging year of 2020, amidst the global pandemic, Catherine embarked on an extraordinary creative endeavor, teaming up with her partner, Ron West. Together, they conceptualized and brought to life an astonishing 76 short films.

These remarkable films, expertly crafted and divided into two distinct series, "Life During Lockdown" and "Butterpotts Players Presents," showcase Catherine's versatility and artistic range.

Catherine's remarkable career as a playwright has been punctuated by the widespread critical acclaim she has received for her work on productions such as "Joined at the Head", "Life in the Trees", and "The Sleeper". These notable achievements have not only showcased her exceptional talent as a playwright but have also demonstrated her ability to craft compelling stories that resonate with audiences.

In addition to her professional accomplishments, Catherine's personal life is marked by her loving relationship with her daughter, Audrey Corsa, who is the product of her marriage to Larry Corsa, a fellow actress. This union, although it has since ended in divorce, has given Catherine the joy and fulfillment of parenthood, and she continues to prioritize her role as a mother.

Currently, Catherine resides in the charming and picturesque city of Santa Monica, California, where she is able to draw inspiration from the beautiful surroundings and continue to hone her craft as a playwright.
