Kimleigh Smith

Kimleigh Smith spent the first 10 years of her life in Japan, which still holds a special place in her heart. After Japan it was off to Leavenworth, Kansas, where she spent the remainder of her school years. She attended Emporia State University and received a BS in Psychology. Despite her education, she always wanted to be a dancer, so after graduation she moved to Chicago to pursue her dream. She worked with several prestigious Chicago dance companies including Gus Giordano Dance and Joel Hall Dance. But dancing simply whet her appetite: she wanted more. On a dare, she auditioned for a play. She got the part and has never looked back. Kimleigh has graced the stages of Chicago’s most renowned theaters: The Goodman Theatre, Lookingglass Theatre and The Steppenwolf Theatre where she performed in “A Clockwork Orange”, “Crumbs from the Table of Joy” and “Puddn’Head Wilson”. Upon moving to Los Angeles, she had the pleasure of reprising her role in “Puddn’Head Wilson” at Garry Marshall’s Falcon Theatre. This production was honored with an LA Weekly Theater Award. Garry Marshall fell in love with Ms. Smith and cast her in her first major motion picture, “The Princess Diaries.” Kimleigh’s career continues to flourish in theatre, commercials, television and film. Be sure to catch her in the upcoming feature, “Something Like a Business,” coming to theatres soon!
