Background:
Willows worked as an exotic dancer on the Strip in her early 20s
while going to college. A young filed services officer named
Grissom recruited her to work at the lab. She started as an
assistant technician and has worked her way up over a decade to
become a CSI Level Three.
Bio:
Catherine was born on a ranch in western Montana. She was the
eldest daughter of fourth-generation ranchers, but the rural
life was never for her. Catherine could ride before she could
walk, but horses were always for taking her away from work. She
left home for the first time as a sixteen-year-old. She lived in
Seattle for a year with her would-be rock-star boyfriend, eking
out a living as a waitress. When he left her for an older woman,
she went home…to find home wasn’t there anymore. Her parents had
been forced to sell their ranch and moved to town. They made it
clear that Catherine was on her own. The next stop for Catherine
was Las Vegas. She waited tables until she discovered a much
more lucrative line of work: exotic dancing. The men loved her
and the money poured in. Catherine spent it all on school and
the aspiring career of her music-producing boyfriend, Eddie.
Dating turned to engagement which turned to marriage. When their
turbulent quasi-romance ended, Eddie left her with ten dollars
in the bank, a coke habit, and a small child, Lindsey. Catherine
pulled it together for her own sake and for the sake of her
daughter. She didn’t become a CSI because she wanted to right
the wrongs of the world - she became a CSI because it makes her
feel like a kid solving puzzles. She loves the challenge and she
loves the buzz of working a case. It’s a high for her - and
anything that makes Catherine feel as good as she does can’t be
all bad.
