Kim Zimmer Comes to One Life to Live
Huge news! Kim Zimmer, best known for her portrayal of fiery, impulsive drama addict Reva Shayne on Guiding Light, is coming to One Life to Live! Kim will reprise her role of superstar photographer Echo DiSavoy this fall. For those that need a memory refresh, Kim played Echo on One Life in 1983. Echo stirred the pot by having an affair with Viki's then husband, Clint -- so you can definitely expect her to play a big role in Viki and Clint's lives upon her return.
Kim is a multiple Emmy winner for Outstanding Lead Actress -- she's received four statuettes for her work at Guiding Light. Her resume is impressive; she's appeared on Santa Barbara, The Doctors, Babylon 5, Seinfeld, Designing Women, MacGyver, Models, Inc, and in the film Body Heat. And did you know that she had ANOTHER OLTL stint prior to her 1983 run as Echo? In 1978, she played Bonnie Harmon.
What do you think of this news? And what do you think is in store for Echo upon her return?

I am glad Kim Zimmer is back on daytime. If she is on OLTL, then I'll watch it.
I'm excited I loved her on Guiding Light!! Can't wait to see what will happen next!
I love Kim Zimmer, I have not watched OLTL in 2years but I will start watching when Kim returns to the show.
Do not know anything about her but would like to see more of those on the show not any more new ones. Blair is sure stupid, she desirves what she gets.
Sure do hope that Tea is saved, it would be a real shame to lose her. You bring in new ones and we do not get to see enough of the old ones as it is.
Great another newbie to suck up air time from the veterans!!! OL need to trim its cast...there are too many characters running around that I don't care for and could careless if they are seen on my screen. Can we get to see more jolie? more buchanans...more bo and nora? Is that too much to ask?
I don't remember Kim zimmer on oltl before ??
I don't know her anyway?? I don't know if I'll like her ?? I font know if I wouldn't like her ??? It's nice that oltl is casting another veteran actress for a change and not another TEEN yey !!! Good choice I guess !!
I have said Elis comander in chief is Mitch about over two weeks ago !!!!
Great, just another newbie to take the airtime away from the ones that I DO want to see, but never get to: Viki and Charlie.
Of course he is.
I am more thrilled than words can say, and have been waiting for this day!! I predicted this would happen, hope she is here to stay. We have a rockin cast, and I am so happy with my soap for making such great choices. Hope they keep goig strong. As for Eli, he has to be working for Mitch.
