Mack was born and raised in Queens, NY. Her first role in the stage play, Rhythm is Gonna Get You, instilled an innate need to perform in her that she would suppress until her freshman year in college. She began earning her stripes in entertainment as a background artist in Hype Williams' first silver screen directorial endeavor, Belly. With the dream reignited, Mack moved on to be featured on Chapelle's Show and in the blockbuster hit American Gangster, as well as a supporting role in the independent feature Chocolate Thunder. As she recently completed the two year Meisner conservatory program at The William Esper Studio, and has also studied at Matthew Corozine and HB Studios, with emphasis on the incredible Meisner technique, she's now ready for full lead roles and is creating them in droves.
In a time that dictates creative brand strategy as a business must-have, Mack is responsible for the K.Mack Brand, which is a comprehensive look at everything that is Katie Mack. The K.Mack Brand can be defined in four simple words, "Be Inspired. Be You." and is an artistic derivation of three major components - acting, writing, and filmmaking. And under her K.Mack Brand umbrella, she premiered her first short, MAC at the NYC International Film Festival in NY City. And to add to that, Mack settles the score of writing and filmmaking with her film website, www.2minmoviechick.com; the site is home to a series of two minute films that she writes, directs, produces, edits, and stars in. Mack is also the Co-Founder of Boxed Out Productions LLC., a boutique production company where she also writes, directs, produces, and stars in her own work along with her business partner. Collectively the ladies' work has been celebrated with an Emmy nominated PSA for the Rhode Island International Film Festival (which Mack was the lead in as well), and four consecutive audience choice awards at the Midtown Theatre Festival in 2012-2014. Add to all of this that Mack is also a published author - so you have the epitome of multi-talented and driven.
