Katherine "Kate" Baker (née Gilbreth, born January 1, 1960) is the mother of twelve children and wife of Tom Baker. In her childhood, she lost her sister and grew up in a small family. Wishing she had a bigger family like what her children have now, she had dreams of becoming a journalist in Illinois and writing for the newspaper; however, she moved to the countryside with Tom in 1995 and began her new life there with him and their children. She appears to have a talent in writing and has had one of her books published.
