Kate Hudson was born on April 19, 1979, in Los Angeles, California, to Academy Award-winning actress Goldie Hawn and musician and actor Bill Hudson. Her parents separated when she was just 18 months old. Kate was primarily raised by her mother and her mother’s longtime partner, actor Kurt Russell. Although born to a family with established entertainment industry roots, Hudson sought to forge her path in acting.
She was raised in a Jewish household and graduated from Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences in Santa Monica in 1997. Rather than pursue a college education—she had been accepted at New York University—Kate chose to embark on an acting career.
Kate Hudson aimed to build a name for herself apart from her famous lineage. Her acting career began with small roles in films such as Desert Blue (1998) and 200 Cigarettes (1999). Her breakthrough came with the critically acclaimed film Almost Famous (2000), in which her portrayal of Penny Lane won her a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
Following this success, she appeared in the romantic comedy How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003), which was a major commercial success, earning over $100 million at the box office. Hudson continued to build her acting portfolio with films like Alex & Emma (2003), Raising Helen (2004), and the thriller The Skeleton Key (2005). In 2006, she starred in the comedy You, Me and Dupree, followed by Fool’s Gold (2008) and the musical film Nine (2009). She also appeared in Something Borrowed (2011) and The Killer Inside Me, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2010.
