Kate Glover studied History at Oxford University. After
3 years
as a History teacher in secondary schools, she taught English to
International business people in Paris, Trieste, Rome and even far-flung
Tbilisi in Georgia before deciding to train as an actress at the age of
36.
Her need for Equity membership prompted her to write a play
Dear Chocolate Soldier. She toured this with another actress and
they both got the coveted Equity card.
