Kimmy Robertson began her career as a ballet dancer but her distinctive
sense of humor and quirky style brought her to the attention of an
agent who happened to worked in the same office as her ballet company.
After at first being unsure about becoming an actor, Kimmy was then
hired for the first role she auditioned for in the teen comedy The Last American Virgin (1982).
She then returned to ballet but appeared in the occasional film such as
Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989) and My Mom's a Werewolf (1989) before being cast as the Sheriff's ditsy secretary,
Lucy, in the groundbreaking TV series Thị Trấn Twin Peaks (1990). Creators Mark Frost and
David Lynch recognized Kimmy's comedic talent and exploited it by
encouraging her to ad-lib her lines, some of which turned into the
funniest moments of the series. Since then, she has appeared in such
films as Disney's Người Đẹp Và Quái Vật (1991), Tốc Độ 2: Kiểm Soát Hành Trình (1997) and Chú Chuột Siêu Quậy (1999).
