FROM COMEDY TO DRAMA

Katey received three Golden Globe and two American Comedy Award nominations during the show’s impressive run.
Her comedic roles in Futurama and 8 Simple Rules – with the late John Ritter – took a surprising turn with the Sons of Anarchy.
On Sons of Anarchy, Katey played the role of the vengeful and stern Gemma Teller Morrow, the no-nonsense matriarch of a California biker gang.
Her portrayal earned her a Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series – Drama back in 2011.
Katey has been married to her third husband, Kurt Sutter, the creator of Sons of Anarchy, for about 16 years.
Kurt also worked with his wife on the canceled medieval drama, The Bastard Executioner.
She was previously married to musician Freddie Beckmeier from 1978 to 1981 and then Jack White from 1993 to 2000.
BEING A REBEL
Recently, Katey landed the lead role of the ABC drama, Rebel.
In the lawyer drama, she portrayed Annie “Rebel” Bello, a character inspired by the life of environmental activist Erin Brockovich.
In an interview with TV Insider, Katey described her character: Everybody knows what it means to ‘Erin Brockovich’ something. It’s a verb.
“It was really interesting to me, particularly given the time we’re in. She gives voice to the voiceless.”
As for playing a character in her 60s, she added: “Men of a certain age have always been in leading roles, but you don’t find many women. I’m in my 60s.
“Women my age can be hot, vital, vibrant and smart – all the things that we are.”
