Actress and TV News Personality, known to friends and family as Katie, she began her career in entertainment at a young age, taking acting lessons when she was just four years old. But it wasn't until a move to New York City in 2009 that her passion for acting and being in front of the camera really took hold. While interning at a number of media companies in the city, Garner furthered her acting resume by joining professional acting classes. She was soon taking on television extra work when time permitted, and eventually signed with her current agent to pursue larger parts in the industry. Back home in North Carolina, where she was raised by her father Keith Garner and mother Carr Garner, Katie had already interned with local news companies including WBTV News 3, ABC News, News 14 Carolina, WWAY, and she also worked as a Christmas Eve reporter at the age of nineteen for WXII News 12. This experience gave her a thirst for covering news stories, and working as a news anchor. After her return from New York in 2009, Katie began working as the Traffic Producer for Triangle Traffic Network, a radio station out of Raleigh, NC. She later got her dream job, and joined the EMMY Award winning team at WBTV News in Charlotte where she held the position of Traffic News Reporter on the morning news. Katie then moved to the WBTV evening news team, reporting the traffic. She was also the weather forecaster for the WBTV News Noon Show 2-3 days a week. Currently, Katie is working for WSYX/WTTE ABC 6/FOX 28 out of Columbus Ohio as a Morning Personality on Good Day Columbus. She says the new position is all a part of God's plan, and she loves living and working in Ohio. While working in the media, Katie continues to pursue her acting career and in 2012 performed as a stand-in for actress Elizabeth Banks in the blockbuster hit, The Hunger Games. She also played "Lizzie the Lifeguard" in the Hollywood movie Pirahna 3DD alongside David Hasslehoff. Most recently Garner has performed as a stand in and body double for actress Claire Danes on hit series, Homeland. The future looks bright for Katie and she continues to further both her acting and journalism career in North Carolina and across the United States, most recently Columbus, Ohio.
