Kimberly Ann's life has been a whirlwind of activity even before she was the lead in her Kindergarten production of Mary Poppins!  Born and reared in Hopewell, Virginia, Kimberly Ann was active in her hometown as an honors student, cheerleader, athlete and later a neighborhood activist and community organizer. She holds a BS in Communication Arts from James Madison University and has work experience in the retail, sales, advertising, personnel and radio and television industries.  Baseball fans may remember her as the female mascot, Princess Win-a-lotta, for the Atlanta Braves. She's been a small business owner since 1990 and operated Browsers on Broadway, Bargain Bazaar, Desire and Awesome Auctions by Desire in her native Hopewell before moving to her beloved Petersburg to open Kimberly Ann's.    

Kimberly Ann is the mother of Sam Pinkleton, a graduate of NYU's drama program currently working as an actor, director, producer, and choreographer in New York City.
