[edit] Background
She was born on Sunday, March 14, 1982 in Surrey, England as Kate Elizabeth Cameron Maberly. She is the daughter of an attorney and she is one of five children; her older sister Polly is an actress as well. She has two older brothers, Thomas and Guy, and one younger brother, Jack. In addition to her acting and music skills, Maberly joined a swimming team at age 5 and won an award for best swimmer in 1992. Maberly skipped a year of school. She graduated from London's Trinity College of Music in 2004 with a joint honours degree in piano and cello performance. She demonstrated her musical abilities playing the piano in the 1995 BBC drama Mothertime. Her height is 5 feet 5 inches tall, and she is left handed.[1]
[edit] Career
Her breakthrough role came in 1993 when, at the age of 11, she portrayed the starring role of Mary Lennox in The Secret Garden. This internationally acclaimed performance paved the way for several subsequent leading roles, including Ira in the 1995 movie Friendship's Field, Dinah Bellman in the 1995 movie The Langoliers, and Vanessa in the 1997 BBC TV Drama Mothertime.
Since The Secret Garden, Maberly has also gone on to parts alongside such established actors as Ted Danson (in Gulliver's Travels, 1996), Omar Sharif (in the IMAX film Mysteries of Egypt, 1998), and Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet as Wendy Darling (in Finding Neverland, 2004) which details the experiences of Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie. In early 2007, she appeared in two feature films, the Australian/UK thriller Like Minds, and the British teen-comedy Popcorn.
Maberly also performed voice-overs for Ordynek, Bringing the Pride of Poland to Texas in 2000, and for The Braniff Pages in 2001. She has completed several radio works for BBC Radio 4 as well, including The Dorabella Variation, A Certain Smile, and National Velvet. Maberly's narration of the audio book Catherine Called Birdy, written by Karen Cushman, received an Audie Award in 1995.
