Katie Barberi (born January 22, 1972 in Saltillo, Coahuila) is a Mexican actress best known for her work in telenovelas.

Biography

Early life

Barberi was born to a Mexican father of Italian descent and an American mother. Because of the nature of the careers of both her parents, Katie Barberi attended many different schools across the United States and Mexico. However, the unstable nature of her childhood is a circumstance she considers 100% positive. She had been exposed to different cultures and points of views about life, as well as having the benefit of learning both English and Spanish.

English language roles

At the age of twelve, Katie and her mother relocated to Los Angeles, California. She quickly began acting professionally in television, film, and on stage. During this time, she had the opportunity to do starring roles in three Disney films. She also played "Maria Delucci" in the NBC series "The Bronx Zoo.

Work in telenovelas

In 1994, Katie Barberi was offered a contract to be a part of a series of telenovelas in Mexico City by Televisa; currently the widest distributor of soap operas in the world. Ready for a change, and with the desire to expand her horizons as well as see family members in Mexico she hadn't seen in more than a decade, Katie happily accepted.

A self-admitted workaholic, Katie Barberi fell in love with the fast pace of acting in Mexican soap operas, where you're required to tape up to forty scenes in one day with the telenovelas being shot in many different locations. To this day, Katie has participated in many telenovelas, each of about eight to twelve month's duration as they are short like "mini-series" in Latin America.
