Kathleen Garrett is an American actress, author, and voice-over talent.

Career

Kathleen Garrett recurs in the series Power Book II: Ghost on Starz! and Inventing Anna on Netflix. She is also in The Trial of the Chicago 7 directed by Aaron Sorkin. She recurred on Law & Order as Judge Susan Moretti and several episodes of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as well as multiple guest star roles in other series.

Garrett performed in and co-produced the solo play, The Last Flapper by William Luce at the Tiffany Theatres in Los Angeles, receiving positive reviews.[1]

Garrett played the role of a Vulcan captain in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Vortex". She later appeared in Star Trek: Voyager episode "Muse" as Tanis (Kelis' species), a stage actor who portrays Captain Kathryn Janeway. Garrett worked again with Star Trek: Voyager actor Robert Beltran in Beltran's production of Hamlet, playing the role of Gertrude.[2] Garrett played the role of Mrs. Alving in the New York City production of Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts at the Century Theatre.[3]

Garrett voiced the role of Pamela Voorhees in trailers for the 2009 Friday the 13th, causing a controversy. Betsy Palmer thought it was her own voice in the film and threatened to sue Paramount.[4] Paramount stated that it would be impossible to pull clean audio from the original film, since the dialogue was tied to music and sound effects, which is why they brought in Garrett to recite the iconic lines.

Garrett appeared in the Law & Order: Special Victims Unit episode based on the Dominique Strauss-Kahn case, as a character based on Anne Sinclair, the then-wife of Dominique Strauss-Kahn.[5]

She continues to work in television, film, theatre, commercials and voice-overs.
