Kim Gordon

Maybe it was over 40 AEA stage roles in classical theater that make it possible for Kim Gordon to easily handle a wide range of language challenges. Elaborate medical phrases and legal terminology are second nature to her and never get in the way of character development in a scene. She is chosen again and again for roles where honesty and conviction come first: a doctor dealing with a woman who has been a victim of spousal abuse, an addictions specialist urging a change of treatment to a substance abuser, a lawyer trying to keep a witness from perjury, an oncologist telling a parent that her child is dying from an untreatable form of cancer. Of course, she welcomes roles where her forcefulness make some question that integrity. Her resume will show how often she is asked back for a second or third project with the same team - a sign of an efficient, well-prepared, hard-working actor.
