Katie Holmes started acting in theater productions in high school, but didn't think she had a shot at stardom living in the Midwest. Fate intervened when she was attending a national modeling and talent convention in New York City, and she met a talent manager who encouraged her to come to Los Angeles for television's pilot season. On her very first professional audition, Holmes dazzled the casting director for the acclaimed feature film "The Ice Storm." When the next pilot season came up during her senior year of high school, Holmes opted to skip coming out to Los Angeles to perform in her school's production of "Damn Yankees" as Lola. For the "Dawson's Creek" audition, she sent in a videotape from Toledo, and when the call back conflicted with her play's opening night, she declined rather than let down her classmates.

Katie Holmes is a midwestern gal. She was always involved with theatre in school, and although stardom often crossed her mind, she didn't think it was a serious possibility living in Ohio.

She got the part of Libbets Casey, a friend and love interest of lead actor Tobey Maguire. Although her role was small, she wowed audiences and critics alike. But, despite the call of Hollywood and fame, she returned home.
Her manager encouraged her to audition for the upcoming series Dawson's Creek. So Katie sent in a video tape, but opted out of going to LA for another audition, as she instead preferred to act in her high school production, "Damn Yankees." The producers of Dawson's thought she was worth the wait.
