Kate Winslet (born October 5, 1975) is an Academy Award-nominated English actress. She is noted for having played a wide range of diverse characters over her career, though her best known role may be that of Rose DeWitt Bukater in the highest-grossing film of all time, Titanic (1997).
Although Winslet has not won an Academy Award, she has been highly favoured by the Academy, and holds the record for the youngest person to receive two Oscar nominations, as well as the record for the most Oscar nominations of any actor before the age of 30 (having received a total of four nominations by that age).
