KaDee Strickland

KaDee Strickland is an American actress known for playing Dr. Charlotte King in the ABC series Private Practice. Born in Blackshear, Georgia, and raised in Patterson, she began acting in high school and studied in Philadelphia and New York City. After small parts in film, television, and stage, including The Sixth Sense (1999), her work in the 2003 films Anything Else and Something's Gotta Give led to roles in Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004) and The Grudge (2004), two horror films. Both received mixed reviews, though horror fans named her their newest scream queen, and she earned a 2005 Teen Choice Award nomination. She earned positive notices for the romantic comedy Fever Pitch (2005). She was a regular on The Wedding Bells in 2007 before joining Private Practice. Later films include The Flock (2007), The Family That Preys (2008), Grand Isle (2019), and The Time Capsule (2022).
