The actress returns to the show to talk with host Cindy Rhodes about The Feeding America campaign — funded by the non-profit Wal-Mart Foundation, ConAgra, General Mills, Kraft and Kellogg’s — to provide 43 million meals for the poor. She is a member of the Entertainment Council for Feeding America.
Kimberly Williams-Paisley first gained attention in 1991 as the young bride in the comedy feature film series, “Father of the Bride” and “Father of the Bride Part II,” starring Steve Martin.
TV viewers know her as Dana in the long-running sitcom, “According To Jim,” starring Jim Belushi and Courtney Thorne-Smith.
Williams-Paisley wrote and directed the short film “Shade” in which she starred opposite Patrick Dempsey. Other film roles include: “We Are Marshall,” “How to Eat Fried Worms,” “How to Go Out on a Day in Queens,” “Simpatico,” “Eden Court,” “Elephant Juice,” “Safehouse,” “The War at Home,” “Indian Summer,” and “Samuel Beckett is Coming Soon.”
During the first year of her marriage to country singer Brad Paisley, she wrote a series of columns for “Redbook” magazine about her own experiences as a new bride.
In 2008, Williams-Paisley co-authored her first children’s book, “Henry and the Hidden Veggie Garden,” with her father. She talked about that book in our 2008 interview.
She is currently hosting a documentary series called “NPT Reports: Children’s Health Crisis,” a Nashville Public television program about the state of children’s health in Tennessee.
