Kathy Kamhi Interview
JH: What was your first impression of the Official SLEEPAWAY CAMP Website?
KK: I think what you're doing is great! My mother found it a few months ago and pointed it out to me... I was reading the inetrviews and everything... it's great!
JH: Tell us what's going on in the life of Kathy Khami these days, including any recent projects and anything else you'd like to share.
KK: Well, after SLEEPAWAY CAMP, I appeared in the soap opera GUIDING LIGHT for 4 years... then did an off-broadway show for a year... I did some guest spots on TV pilots including a guest spot on NYPD BLUE about 4 years ago... I recently did 2 independent films... 1 of which is at festivals now called 3 DAYS OF RAIN
with BLYTHE DANNER (Who is Gwenyth Paltrow's Mom), Lyle Lovett, Harry Dean Stanton, and Don Meredith (who's son was the director). It recently appeared at TRIBECA FILM FEST in NY which is a film festival created by Robert Deniro for the first time this year! The movie got great feedback so they are looking for a distributor...
JH: Tell us about the character you played in 3 DAYS...
KK: I played a CHICAGO PAROLE OFFICER ... I am the main character's parole officer... checking her for drugs and giving her advice...
JH: And what have you done since 3 DAYS?
KK: I did a film called PRISONERS OF FREEDOM... about the Holocaust... It was directed by the head of the Syracuse University Film Department, Owen Shapiro. I Play one of the only fictitious characters in the film, a documentary film-maker making a film about European Refugees that came over during the war and what they went through.
JH: Tell us about your family.
KK: I have a 6 year old daughter, Madeline, and she is doing commercials... She did one for Tropicana Orange Juice and a Public Service Announcement about world hunger which will start airing soon... And I have a 1 and a half year-old son, JACK. My Husband is Bureau Chief of the show: INSIDE EDITION.

Madeleine & Jack!

JH: What was the most important thing that you got out of SLEEPAWAY CAMP?
KK: It taught me to take any role in any production more seriously because you Never know what's gonna happen! I was doing ALL MY CHILDREN at the same time as I was shooting SLEEPAWAY CAMP... ABC sent a limo back and forth from the set. SLEEPAWAY CAMP was a lot of fun and with ALL MY CHILDREN, I felt like I had to be more serious.
JH: How would you feel about being somehow involved in the upcoming sequel: RETURN TO SLEEPAWAY CAMP??
KK: 100% YES!!!!!!! Meg can come back (laughs)!
JH: Have you ever been recognized by someone as being "Meg" from SLEEPAWAY CAMP?
KK: YES! Absolutely! I've had people say, "Did you do a horror film?" I would say "Yes" and they would say "It was that SLEEPAWAY CAMP movie!!"
JH: If I put together another SLEEPAWAY CAMP Reunion, will M-E-G be there??
KK: OF course she will, absolutely!! I'd love it!!
JH: Do you have anything you'd like to say to all the MEG/Kathy Kamhi FANS out there??
KK:Thank you for supporting the film and for having great taste!!! To Enjoy SLEEPAWAY CAMP, you have to be smart... so if you're a fan, I know you got some brains!!!!!

I would like to send a Special thanks to KATHY for taking the path back to CAMP with us!! The M-E-G is back and there's no stopping her now! I'd also like to give a shout out to Mike Medina for his help and dedication to SLEEPAWAY!
