Kate is an author, speaker, former acclaimed actress and singer in the New York Broadway musical theatre world, and mother of Grammy Award-winning contemporary Christian recording artist Francesca Battistelli. Kate is convinced God has a wild, preposterous, secret, scary, or impossible dream just for you. It’s what she calls a God dare…because she’s learned that, with God, absolutely anything is possible. As a young actress in New York City, Kate was catapulted from understudy to leading lady with the role of Anna in the Broadway national tour of The King and I, co-starring opposite Yul Brynner for more than 1,000 performances. Kate and
her husband laid down their careers in the Broadway theatre world in answer to their first God dare—to move out of New York and into a life of homeschooling and home business. Kate is living proof that God can and will use anyone, if they’re willing. She’s experienced infertility, miscarriage, an abortion at age 18, and four failed adoption attempts…all of which wreaked havoc on her life. Kate’s goal is to see men and women become all that God has created them to be—and she believes each of us is here to change the world. Kate is in demand to speak at workshops, churches, and convention and conference settings, inspiring others to let Jesus pick their future. A natural encourager, Kate believes none of us are here by accident, but we are here to change the world. Kate lives in Franklin, Tennessee, near Francesca’s growing family. She’s been married to her husband and business partner, Mike, for 36 years and loves being near their daughter, son-in-law, and five amazing grandchildren.
