\"KimberlyActress Kimberly Williams-Paisley<\/strong><\/a> is best known as the radiant young bride in the comedy feature film series Father of the Bride<\/em> and Father of the Bride Part II,<\/em> and more recently as the co-star of the hit ABC TV sitcom According to Jim<\/em> and star of the Lifetime Movie Network film Amish Grace<\/em>. Around here at NPT, we know her as our good friend and host of the important Emmy Award-winning documentary series, NPT Reports: Children’s Health Crisis<\/em><\/a><\/strong> project. She has not only hosted the show, providing opening and closing statements for each episode since we started it in February of 2010, she’s been a great advocate and supporter of the project off-air as well. She joined us at a symposium on “Infant Mortality<\/a><\/strong>” at Vanderbilt University prior to our episode on the topic, and more recently helped us kick off the “Prevention<\/a><\/strong>” installment with a fun Cat-in-the-Hat Health Night at Fall Hamilton School.<\/p>\n

At a recent taping for our latest episode on Mental Health<\/a><\/strong>, which premieres Wednesday, June 29 at 9:00 p.m., we took a few minutes to ask the mother of two about her role in the project, and why children’s health in Tennessee is so important to her.<\/p>\n
