Davis was born in Boulder, Colorado. She is the only child of her parents, who got divorced when she was a baby. Following Dorothy’s 1968 marriage to Keith Davis, a professor at the University of Colorado Boulder at the time, Davis was adopted by her stepfather. Dorothy was a university data analyst.
She has three half-sisters from her father’s first marriage. When she was a little child, she and her parents relocated to Columbia, South Carolina because her father was the provost there and also a psychology professor at the University of South Carolina.
In the HBO series Sex and the City, Davis was cast as Charlotte York in 1998, and she remained a key cast member until the series’ 2004 conclusion. She and the rest of the ensemble were honored with the Women in Film Lucy Award in 1999 for their excellent efforts to improve how women were perceived on television.
Davis was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Series, Miniseries, or Television Film and a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her portrayal of Charlotte in the show’s final season.
