Kim Victoria Cattrall (born August 21, 1956, in Widnes, England) is a British-born, Canadian-raised Golden Globe-winning and Emmy-nominated actress. She is well-known for her role as Samantha Jones in the HBO comedy/romance series Sex and the City, and for her leading roles in the 1980s films Police Academy and Mannequin.
Kim Cattrall was born in the small English town of Widnes, sixteen miles from Liverpool. Her mother, Shane Cattrall, was a housewife; her father, Dennis Cattrall, was a builder. Cattrall has three siblings. When she was less than a year old, her family emigrated to Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada. At the age of 11 she returned to England when her grandmother became ill. During this time she took acting exams at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA). Cattrall returned to Canada at age sixteen, finishing her final year of high school there.

Sex and the City is a multiple Emmy Award and Golden Globe award–winning popular American cable television program. The original run of the show was broadcast on HBO from 1998 until 2004, for a total of six seasons.

Set in New York City, the show focuses on four female characters. It was considered a sitcom, but had serialized story lines as well as dramatic elements. Noted as one of, if not the most, important television shows for fashion and its industry due in large part to celebrated stylist Patricia Field, it tackled socially relevant issues, often specifically dealing with women in society in the late 1990s, and how changing roles and definitions for women affected the characters.
