Katarzyna Figura (born 22 March 1962) is a Polish actress. She is sometimes billed as "Kasia Figura", as in Prêt-à-Porter (Ready to Wear), Robert Altman's 1994 film.

Biography

Après s'être diplômée en 1985 au l'École supérieure nationale de Théâtre de Varsovie, elle joue au Teatr Wspolczesny (1985 - 1988), puis elle continue ses études d'art dramatique au Conservatoire national supérieur d'art dramatique de Paris.

Après son premier succès dans Pociąg do Hollywood (1987), elle tient un peu le rôle d'une Marilyn Monroe polonaise. Elle devient l'une des plus célèbres actrices contemporaines de l'industrie du film polonaise. Elle joue d'ordinaire des rôles de beautés blondes, prostituées, et d'épouses d'hommes riches, mais elle a récemment changé radicalement de style pour des caractères plus mûrs, des personnages amers ou tristes.

En 2004, elle revient au théâtre après une longue pause. Son rôle comme Alina to the West de Paweł Miśkiewicz au théâtre dramatique de Varsovie a été salué par la critique. Elle avait dû se raser la tête pour ce rôle, ce qui a brisé son image de sex symbol.

A eu un fils, Aleksander (né en 1987), avec son ex-mari Jan Chmielewski.
Une fille, Koko Claire Figura-Schoenhals, née le 24 octobre 2002 à New York, USA.
