Career

Another big role came in 1983 in the action movie Lone Wolf McQuade, playing Chuck Norris's daughter, Sally McQuade. Kimmell made a guest appearance on the 2-part Second Season episode "When you coming back, Range Rider?" of The A-Team in October 1983, and has made some guest appearances on TV shows, including Charlie's Angels, Eight is Enough, The Facts of Life, and Hunter.

Kimmell does not act anymore but did audio commentary for the DVD release of Friday the 13th Part III (1982), talking about the experiences making the film and the aftermath of it.

Kimmell does not like horror films, and left the business because of several reasons, which can be read in this quote from her below.

"I'm not a big fan of R-rated movies,' she says. 'I believe movies should be doing a better job of standing up for good values and morals. I'm also not too fond of onscreen sex.'
