Kimberly "Kim" Turner (born March 21, 1961 in Birmingham, Alabama) is an American athlete who competed mainly in the 100 meter Hurdles.
She competed for the United States in the 1984 Summer Olympics held in Los Angeles, USA in the 100 meter hurdles where she won the bronze medal jointly with Michèle Chardonnet of France. [1]
While at Mumford High School in Detroit, Michigan she set the still standing NFHS national high school record in the 110 yard hurdles at 13.6. The federation converted record-keeping to metric distances shortly afterward.[2]
