Kelly Lee Carlson (born February 17,
1976) is an American actress and model. She is known for her current role
as Kimber Henry on Nip/Tuck. In 2001 she was listed on Tear Sheet
Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful list.
Carlson is originally from Minneapolis, and attended the Academy of Holy
Angels in Richfield, Minnesota. In addition to acting, she has also
modeled, including ad campaigns with Miller Lite, Rembrandt, and Oliver
Peoples sunglasses. She appeared in the August 2004 issue of Maxim
magazine and on the cover of the October issue of Stuff Magazine.
She is a spokesperson for the Smile Network, a Minnesota-based
humanitarian organization that provides reconstructive surgeries and
related health care services to impoverished children and young adults in
developing countries.
Carlson started out in theater, performing in productions of Vanities,
Cheaters, Girls Guide to Chaos, Charlotte's Web and Can't Trust the Mate.
She also appeared as an extra in the film 3000 Miles to Graceland. In
2003, Carlson booked a guest role in the pilot of the FX series Nip/Tuck.
Her character, Kimber Henry, quickly became popular with audiences, and
she appeared in several episodes of the first and second seasons,
eventually becoming a regular in the show's third season. She has remained
part of the main cast ever since.
Outside of Nip/Tuck, Carlson has appeared in several feature films,
including Paparazzi, The Marine, the direct-to-video sequel Starship
Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation and a supporting role in the mainstream
comedy Made of Honor alongside Patrick Dempsey. She has also made guest
spots on Everwood, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, CSI: Miami and Monk.
She was initially cast in the 2007 horror movie Dead of Winter, but was
replaced by former Pussycat Doll turned actress Cyia Batten before filming
began, due to creative differences with the director. She recently
completed work on the final episodes of Nip/Tuck, and is segueing onto a
recurring role on the CW update of Melrose Place, playing a Hollywood
madam.
She also had a short appearance in the television movie Degrassi Goes
Hollywood.
