Kim Darby

Kim Darby

Highest Rated: 100% The Evil Within (2017)

Lowest Rated: 8% Teen Wolf Too (1987)

Birthday: Jul 8, 1947

Birthplace: Los Angeles, California, USA

Kim Darby rose to fame as the young woman who asks John Wayne to help her avenge her father's murder in "True Grit" (1969), but while Wayne won an Academy Award for his efforts, Darby's spunky quality did not translate into ingenue status and she proved hard to cast. By the 1980s, her work had become sporadic.
