Life and career

Clare Woodgate, born in Colchester, Essex, Cates, attended Colchester County High School for Girls and went into television acting when she was 16 years old, as Jenny Porter on BBC's 2point4 Children. After two series, she left the show to concentrate on acting in television dramas such as Casualty and The Bill and in low-budget films.

Cates (then still known as Clare Woodgate) auditioned for the role of Stella in the film An Awfully Big Adventure in 1995, but was not cast. Georgina Cates, a 17-year-old Liverpudlian girl with no previous acting experience, dyed her hair red and reinvented herself as a seventeen-year-old Liverpudlian girl who had no previous acting experience. When she re-applied for the same position, the casting director recruited her. Frankie Starlight (1995), Illuminata (1998), and A Soldier's Sweetheart (1998). Amanda in Clay Pigeons (1998) with Vince Vaughn and Joaquin Phoenix received critical praise for her role as Amanda in Clay Pigeons (1998). After a seven-year absence from film, Cates returned to the independent film genre to co-star in Sinner, for which she received the Brooklyn Arts Council Best Actress award at the Brooklyn Arts Council International Film & Video Festival.

In 1997, Cates married American actor Skeet Ulrich, with whom she had twins. The couple divorced in 2004 and 2005, citing irreconcilable inconsistencies.
