Kim Zimmer Detailed Biography -
|
|
Kim Zimmer (born February 2, 1955 in Grand Rapids, Michigan) is an American actress.
Zimmer is probably best known for her role as Reva Shayne Lewis on the television soap opera Guiding Light, from 1983 to 1990 and, currently, since 1995.
Her character has undergone many transformations: she has been a vixen (having married a father and two sons of the same family), a manic-depressive, an Amish woman, presumed dead more than once (most recently, a clone was made from her DNA), the princess of a little-known island nation named San Cristobel, a time traveler, a Civil War belle, a French woman, a woman who saved illegal immigrants from certain death, a talk show host, a psychic, and last, but not least, a loving mom, not necessarily in that order. In 2005, her character experienced the onset of menopause. In her early days, as originally created by headwriter Pamela Long, she was a spirited troublemaker; the episode where Reva "baptized" herself the "Slut of Springfield" in a public fountain is generally regarded to be one of the best in soap opera history.
In between, she played Jodie DeWitt Walker on Santa Barbara from 1992 to 1993. She also played Nola Dancy Aldrich on The Doctors, Bonnie Harmon and Echo DiSavoy on One Life to Live before she got her part on Guiding Light. She also was featured in the film Body Heat.
Zimmer is married to actor/director, A.C. Weary and they have three children - two boys and one girl. Her son, Jake Weary, appeared on As The World Turns as Luke Snyder in 2005.
Zimmer has won three Daytime Emmy awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her work on Guiding Light.
