Kate Winslet | Kate Elizabeth Winslet CBE (born 5 October 1975) is an English actress. She is known for her portrayals of angst-ridden women, typically in period dramas and tragedies. Winslet is the recipient of several accolades, including three British Academy Film Awards, and is among the few performers to have won Academy, Emmy, and Grammy Awards.
Born in Reading, Berkshire, Winslet studied drama at the Redroofs Theatre School and had her first screen appearance at the age of 15 in the British television series Dark Season (1991). She made her film debut playing a teenage murderess in Heavenly Creatures (1994), and received her first BAFTA Award for playing Marianne Dashwood in Sense and Sensibility (1995). Global stardom followed soon after with her leading role in the epic romance Titanic (1997), which was the highest-grossing film of all time to that point. She subsequently eschewed parts in blockbusters in favour of critically acclaimed but little-seen period pieces, including Quills (2000) and Iris (2001).
The science fiction romance Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), in which she played one of her first roles set in contemporary times, proved to be a turning point in her career, and she continued to gain recognition for her performances in Finding Neverland (2004), Little Children (2006), Revolutionary Road (2008), and The Reader (2008). For playing a Nazi camp guard in the last of these, she won the BAFTA Award and Academy Award for Best Actress. In the 2010s, she won a Primetime Emmy Award for playing a single mother in 1950s America in the miniseries Mildred Pierce (2011), joined the Divergent film series, and won her third BAFTA Award for playing Joanna Hoffman in Steve Jobs (2015).
Winslet was awarded the Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album for Children for narrating a short story in the audiobook Listen to the Storyteller (1999). She performed the song "What If" for the soundtrack of her film Christmas Carol: The Movie (2001). Winslet is the co-founder of the charity Golden Hat Foundation, which aims to create autism awareness, and has written a book on the topic, named The Golden Hat: Talking Back to Autism (2010). Time magazine named Winslet one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2009, and in 2012, she was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE). Divorced from the film directors Jim Threapleton and Sam Mendes, Winslet is married to the businessman Ned Rocknroll since 2012. She has a child from each marriage.
