Katharine "Katie" Wagner (born May 11, 1964) is an American television personality and Hollywood reporter. She was named after actress and family friend Katharine Hepburn.

Wagner was born in Los Angeles, California. Her parents are actress Marion Marshall and actor Robert Wagner. They divorced in 1971 when she was seven years old.

On her mother's side she has two older half-brothers, Josh Donen and Peter Donen. On her father's side, she has a younger half-sister, Courtney Wagner. She has a former stepsister Natasha Gregson Wagner from her father's marriage to Natalie Wood.

Her stepmother is Jill St. John.

Katie graduated from Beverly Hills High School in 1982 and attended Santa Barbara City College for a semester. After dropping out of college, she dabbled in modeling, which allowed her to live in Tokyo and London.

Katie received a break in 1987, when she and her father were featured on the TV show Born Famous. The show's host asked her what she hoped to do for a living. Her answer: "I would like to do what you do." Katie's first media job was for the Don Mischer special M & W on ABC, for which she interviewed Dan Aykroyd and his wife, Donna Dixon. This resulted in a two-and-a-half-year run at the Movietime Cable Network (Now E! Network). Katie went on to work at HBO, Cinemax, V, and MTV. At MTV, she guest-hosted from both coasts. She also co-hosted Awake on the Wildside, filled in for Chris Connelly on The Big Picture, and introduced videos at night.
