Katherine Kurtz

Personal life Kurtz married Scott MacMillan in 1983; they have one son, Cameron. Within the following couple of years they moved to Ireland. Both later became naturalized Irish citizens. Until 2007, they lived at Holybrooke (Hollybrook) Hall, in the largest of four houses formed from the original historic building, between Kilmacanogue and Bray in County Wicklow, Ireland. Kurtz wrote, and Macmillan, who had worked in the film industry, took a role as a herald in the Office of the Chief Herald of Ireland. They put their Irish home on the market in 2006 for 3.5 million euro, and in 2007 moved back to the United States, to a historic house in Staunton, Virginia. MacMillan died in 2019.
