Kim Hunter has been with FUMC since April 2002. She began her ministry here as pianist for the traditional worship services and accompanist for the chancel choir, youth choir, and children’s choir. She always felt the desire to become more involved in the church and in May 2005 gladly took on the full time position as Associate Director of Music and Youth. Her responsibilities now include directing the youth choirs and overseeing the Mid High Youth program as well as working with Shannon and Lester with any other aspects dealing with music and youth.

The vivacious little fireball of an actress Kim Hunter has died. Born in Detriot on November 12, 1922 she studied at The Actors Studio in New York along side Marlon Brando and other greats of the stage and screen from her generation. In 1947 she created the role of Stella from Tennessee Williams' A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE on the New York stage and like her co-star in that production it carried her to Hollywood and a long film and TV career. She would win both an Oscar and a Golden Globe for that film role.

Kim Hunter, like Karl Malden, had less screen time than their co-actors Marlon Brando and Vivien Leigh. Aside from that, Hunter's portrayal of Stella Kowalski is far above other performances of Stella Kowalski.

Born Janet Cole, American actress Kim Hunter trained at the Actors Studio. At age 17, she debuted onscreen in The Seventh Victim (1943) before appearing in several subpar films. Her popularity was renewed with her appearance in the British fantasy A Matter of Life and Death (1946), and, in 1947, she created the role of Stella Kowalski on Broadway in Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire, reprising the role in the 1951 film version, for which she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar. But her career was dealt a terrible blow when her name appeared without cause in Red Channels, a Red-scare pamphlet during the McCarthy Era, and she was blacklisted. Several years later, she was called as the star witness in a court case instigated by another Red Channels victim, and her testimony discredited the publication and made it possible for dozens of other performers to reclaim their careers. She returned to films sporadically after this, and ... did much work on stage and television; among her roles was appearing as a female ape in three Planet of the Apes films.
