Go go Power Rangers! The smash hit kid's TV show has been around in many forms for nearly thirty years, and maintains a presence to this day, but many would say it's never really hit the popularity or success that it enjoyed when it had its original Power Ranger lineup. Kimberley, the pretty Pink Ranger, played a key role in that success, and opened many doors in television for Amy Jo Johnson.
Amy actually started out as a gymnast, and it was her ability in this field that made her perfect for the fight scenes that the show demanded of her. Starring roles in "Felicity" and Flashpoint" followed, but Amy's real passion may well be singing. She has written and released three studio albums with her own band and performed regularly in the Los Angeles area. She has also turned her hand to production and directing in recent years, releasing her first self-produced feature film "The Space Between" in 2017.
