Biography

"As an actor, you know, I love not being pigeonholed, which is great. No one really knows who I am. So that's a positive." Kathryn Hahn has built a career defined by sharp comic timing, emotional range, and genre versatility. Born in Illinois and raised in Ohio, she studied theater at Northwestern University and earned an MFA from Yale School of Drama. Hahn’s screen debut came with NBC’s “Crossing Jordan” (2001–2007), which introduced her to mainstream audiences. She gradually expanded into film with supporting roles in “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” (2003), “Anchorman” (2004), and “Step Brothers” (2008), later evolving into complex leads in projects like “Afternoon Delight” (2013), “Private Life” (2018), and “Mrs. Fletcher” (2019). Her portrayal of Agatha Harkness in Marvel’s “WandaVision” (2021) marked a cultural high point, earning her an Emmy nomination and a devoted fanbase. Hahn’s work in “Transparent” (2014–2019), “I Know This Much Is True” (2020), and “Tiny Beautiful Things” (2023) further reflect her inclination toward emotionally intricate characters.
