Kimberley Davies

Best known in Australia for her role in Network Ten’s iconic series Neighbours, Kimberley Davies is an accomplished actress whose career has spanned some of the most recognisable television and film productions in Australia and the United States.

Kimberley first rose to prominence in 1993 as Annalise Hartman in Neighbours, a role she played for three years, and which quickly made her one of the show’s most popular characters. Following this success, Kimberley relocated to Los Angeles where she soon secured a lead role in the primetime drama ‘Pacific Pallisades’, starring opposite Joan Collins as her on-screen mother. During her time in the US, Kimberley also guest starred in a number of globally successful television shows, including Spin City, Friends and Ally McBeal.

Kimberley completed a Dramatic Course at Monash University and trained with some of the industry’s most respected acting coaches, including Janet Alhunty, Ivana Chubbuck and Lesly Kahn. Her film credits include leading role in The Shrink is In, Psycho Beach, Spy, and True Love and Chaos, further cementing her reputation as a versatile performer across both television and film.

Thanks to her popularity, Kimberley has been a familiar face across a range of celebrity and entertainment programs. These include appearances on the UK’s ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here!’ in 2006, Nine Network’s ‘Celebrity Circus’, Seven Network’s ‘Dancing with the Stars’, and a guest panellist role on Network Ten’s ‘Talkin Bout Your Generation’. In 2011, she also appeared as Imogen in the ABC comedy series ‘Lowdown’, alongside Adam Zwar, Kym Gyngell, Matt Preston, Brett Tucker and Colin Hay, with narration by Geoffrey Rush.

Throughout her career, Kimberley has been invited to present at many of the industry’s most prestigious award ceremonies, including the British Television Awards, The People’s Choice Awards, The AFI Awards and The Logies – a testament to her standing within the entertainment industry.

In recent years, Kimberley has chosen a quieter life away from the spotlight. Now based in Melbourne, she has focused on raising her three children and running her own decorating business, drawing on a long-standing passion for interior design which she studied at RMIT University. While she continues to be fondly remembered by audiences, particularly following Neighbours’ historic finale in 2022, Kimberley’s career today reflects a successful transition from international screen star to a fulfilled life balancing creativity, business and family.
