At the age of 15, Kim was already a big star and even though it took a toll on her health she didn’t want to leave.

She told Austin American-Statesman in 1979, “I love the business, though. And I plan to stay in it the rest of my life, Once you’re established, you’ll probably work right through. Somehow, I skipped the awkward period in my life. I’m really too old now to play kids.”
