Who is Katherine Heigl?

Nancy Heigl (née Engelhardt), a personnel manager, and Paul Heigl, an accountant, and executive, welcomed Katherine Marie Heigl into the world on November 24, 1978, in Washington, D.C. Her mother is of German origin, and her father is of German /Swiss-German and Irish lineage. Katherine’s family relocated to New Canaan, Connecticut, shortly after her birth. She spent most of her youth; the youngest of her siblings, Katherine—or “Katie” as she is known—has two older siblings, John and Meg. Jason, her older brother, died in 1986 after being flung from the back of a pickup truck and suffering brain injuries in an automobile accident.

The family made the agonizing decision to donate his organs after physicians discovered he was brain-dead. This difficult phase not only gave Katherine a new perspective on life and a better appreciation for it, but it also inspired her to utilize her prominence to highlight the significance of organ donors.
