Katherine "Kate" Baldwin (born May 2, 1975) is an American actress and singer known for her work in musical theatre.

Born in Evanston, Illinois, Baldwin graduated from Shorewood High School in 1993, and from the theatre program at Northwestern University in 1997.

Baldwin made her Broadway debut in The Full Monty in 2000, followed by appearances in Thoroughly Modern Millie, "Big Fish the Musical" and Wonderful Town. She frequently performs in regional theater and was nominated for the Helen Hayes Award for her portrayal of Nellie Forbush in the 2002 Arena Stage production of South Pacific. Additional credits include The Sound of Music and The Music Man at The Muny in St. Louis, Missouri and Charlotte in A Little Night Music at Centre Stage in Baltimore. Baldwin played the role of Sharon in the 2009 Encores! staged concert production of Finian's Rainbow. New York Times critic Charles Isherwood called her a "discovery" and praised her performance, noting she sang the role "beautifully... her rich, pure soprano riding the crests of the melodies with ease." She reprised the role in the Broadway revival that brought the Encores production to the St. James Theatre in October 2009. Her performance received positive notices again, as well as a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress in Musical.
