Kimberly Drummond was a fictional character on the popular television series, Diff'rent Strokes, and was portrayed by child actress Dana Plato from 1978 until 1984, at the end of the show's sixth season.

Kimberly Drummond is the only biological child and daughter of wealthy widower, Philip Drummond (Conrad Bain). Kimberly was born on Park Avenue in New York on October 22, 1964. Kimberly was shown as a caring, loving big sister to both Willis and Arnold, but as a wealthy, coming of age teenager, she suffered from various problems.

Kimberly was always shown as a loving older sister to both Arnold and Willis, and had suffered problems throughout the series run: in one episode, no one in the Jackson/Drummond Family knew that Kimberly was suffering from bulimia, or pregnant.
