Birth Name: Katt Williams Born: 09/02/1973 Birth Place: Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Katt Micah Williams was born on Sept. 2, 1973 in Cincinnati, OH. As a child, Williams loved to read - so much so that his parents banned him from the pastime as punishment when he misbehaved. Academic achievement played a big part in the strict household. At 12, Williams won numerous science competitions which landed him a full scholarship to The National Science Academy in Dayton. However, upon learning about his scholarship, Williams failed a math test on purpose so he would be disqualified from the program - a move the future comic later attributed to simply being a smart alecky kid. To express his creative side, Williams turned to comedy - collecting jokes and combining them with music. He had his first taste of stand-up comedy when he pretended to be one of the performers at a club the then-underage Williams was trying to crash. Without any prior experience and a prepared set, he did a ballsy five-minute improv to an enthusiastic crowd and never looked back.
