Where are they now: KIMBERLY McARTHUR

When Robin Wright announced her intention to leave the show (1988) to launch out in other cinematographic adventure, the production of Santa Barbara organized at once a big session of auditions to find the new Kelly Capwell as soon as possible. More than two hundred candidates presented themselves. Among them, a 24 years old girl whose charm compensated the thinness of a curriculum vitae on which appeared only very short appearances in TV movies and some advertisings. Her name: Kimberly McArthur. She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its January 1982 issue. Two weeks after the departure of Robin Wright, she made, in June 1988, her entering at the Capwells. "Me who however am not superstitious, I could not prevent me from noting that my beginnings in the show took place the 13 of the month !"

But she was right to be superstitious: in fact her adventure on SB lasted less than one year and, after only 8 months her contract was not renewed, giving the place up to Carrington Garland. Since, Hollywood lost her trace. Her career ended in 1990 with “The Bakery”, a failed series pilot about three time periods in the history of a Southern California Police station located 'temporarily' in a converted bakery. I have not heard from Kimberly since 1990. I hope she is well and maybe one day to interview her.
