Hunter, Kim

Hunter, Kim [neé Janet Cole] (1922–2002), actress. The pretty yet strong‐featured leading lady was born in Detroit and trained for an acting career at the Actors Studio. Hunter made an auspicious Broadway bow as Stella in the original A Streetcar Named Desire (1947). Although she was blacklisted in the 1950s, the film actress found work in the classics in regional theatres, on Broadway, and years later in many television programs. Her last Broadway appearance was in the 1996 revival of An Ideal Husband, and she continued to act on the stage into 2001.
