Biography

Petite, brunette actress Kathleen Beller was working in daytime TV soaps when she made her film debut at 19, playing the tiny role of "The Girl in 'Senza Mamma'" in The Godfather Part II (1974). Subsequent movie assignments ranged from a thankless heroine in The Sword and the Sorceror (1982) to a hilarious turn as Harry Hamlin's very nearsighted sister in Movie Movie (1979). Ardent video viewers will immediately recognize Kathleen from her many TV-movie appearances, notably the title role in the 1977 biopic Mary White. For three seasons in the early 1980s, Kathleen Beller portrayed butler's daughter Kirby Anders on the prime time serial Dynasty. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Kathleen Beller (born February 19, 1956, in Westchester, New York, USA) is an actress nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture Actress in a Supporting Role for her role in Promises in the Dark (1979).

Her film debut was a small role in 1974's The Godfather Part II, portraying an actress in a play that the young Vito Corleone and Genco Abbandando attended, and in whom Genco was interested romantically. She played Betsy in 1978's The Betsy, starring Laurence Olivier, Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall.

She is also well remembered for her role as Kirby Anders Colby in the television drama Dynasty from 1982 to 1984. She reprised the role for Dynasty: The Reunion in 1991.
