Kate Lynch
Kate Lynch (born June 29, 1959) is a Canadian film, television and stage actress, drama teacher, theatre director and playwright. ==Biography == In 1980 she won the Genie Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role for ''Meatballs''.〔Tom Henighan, ''The Maclean's Companion to Arts and Culture''. Raincoast Books, 2000. ISBN 978-1551922980.〕 In her acceptance speech, however, she communicated the belief that she had won the award more for the fact of being a Canadian actress in a popular hit film, at a time when Canadian films still predominantly cast bigger-name stars from the United States, than for her actual performance.〔Manjunath Pendakur, ''Canadian Dreams and American Control: The Political Economy of the Canadian Film Industry''. Wayne State University Press, 1990. ISBN 978-0814319994. p. 192.〕 She was nominated for the same award in 1988 for her role in ''Taking Care'', although she did not win on that occasion. Her other film credits include ''Lie with Me'', ''Soup for One'', ''Def-Con 4'', ''God Bless the Child'' and ''The Guardian'', while her television credits include ''Custard Pie'', ''Anne of Avonlea'' and guest roles in ''Adderly'', ''Danger Bay'', ''Seeing Things'', ''Queer as Folk'', ''This Is Wonderland'', ''Lost Girl'' and ''Degrassi''. As a playwright, her plays include ''Newcomer'', ''Ten Minute Play: The Musical'', ''The Road to Hell'' (cowritten with Michael Healey), ''Tales of the Blonde Assassin'' and ''Early August''.〔("Actors take us backstage in Early August" ). ''London Free Press'', August 12, 2011.〕 As a director, she has directed plays for the Shaw Festival, the Blyth Festival and Theatre Passe Muraille, including productions of William Shakespeare's ''Henry V'', ''A Midsummer Night's Dream'', ''Pericles'' and ''Cymbeline'', Samuel Beckett's ''Waiting for Godot'', Linda Griffiths' ''Age of Arousal'', Terence Rattigan's ''French Without Tears'', Noël Coward's ''Star Chamber'', Eve Ensler's ''The Vagina Monologues''〔Jeanne Beker, ''Finding Myself in Fashion''.

She has taught for University College Drama Program, the Stratford Festival, the Shaw Festival, Ryerson University and George Brown College.
