Katie Holmes as Joey Potter

Full name: Katherine Noelle Holmes

Katie started her acting career in high school, but didn't think she could pursue it because she lived in the mid-west.

While she was attending a national modeling and talent convention in New York she met a talent agent who talked her into going to Los Angeles. On her first trip she got a part in a film called "The Ice Storm".

Katie actually didn't make it out for the audition for Dawson's Creek, instead she sent in a video tape, and when she was called back, she decided to not go because she was performing in a school play. But fortunately the producers rescheduled so she could audition for them and she landed the role of Joey Potter.
