Katie Logan is a fictional character from the CBS Daytime soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. Originally portrayed by actress Nancy Sloan for much of her duration on the series, she is currently portrayed by Daytime Emmy Award winning actress, Heather Tom. She is the younger sister of Brooke and Donna Logan.

She was played by actress Nancy Sloan in a contract role from 1987 to 1989, was recurring from 1994 to 1996, and continued to make guest appearances in 2000, 2001, 2003, and 2004. In 2007, the role of Katie was recast with Heather Tom, who made her debut on August 30, 2007. Tom had previously held roles on The Young and the Restless (Victoria Newman) and One Life to Live (Kelly Cramer). In 2008, Tom signed a contract with the series to ensure her stay until sometime in 2011. On her acting technique, Tom said "Well, my method is really just putting myself in the middle of the moment; the middle of the situation."

In 2008, the show aired a controversial plot in which Katie was dying, and her brother Storm Logan (William deVry) committed suicide to give her his heart. Tom says that she wants to remind viewers of this event as much as she can; she told TV Guide, "I always make sure I wear a [prosthetic] chest scar whenever Katie's in something low-cut to remind people of that transplant story."

Throughout her marriage to Bill Spencer, Jr. (Don Diamont), the couple have endured multiple challenges, including all of Bill's plotting to kill someone. Tom said "even though Katie 'left him' at one point, she never walked out on him in the regard where she's not trying to come back; trying to find her way back." Describing her as the girl who doesn't cut and run, additionally stating "It would take a lot for her to walk away from this relationship - she feels like this is the man she loves, she understands who she's married to - she knows she didn't marry a boy scout." Katie is someone to "correct" Bill and "love" him through his wrongdoing, according to the actress.
