Mimi Clark is a character on the American post-apocalyptic drama Jericho. She is played by Alicia Coppola.
Mimi is from Washington, D.C., in town on behalf of the IRS, which had ordered Stanley Richmond's farm to be audited. Because of the attacks, she finds herself stuck in Jericho, left with nothing to do but hang out at the bar and disliking the small town atmosphere.
After the storm breaks, Mimi accidentally dips her hand into a puddle of liquefied ash, which Mary Bailey says is "what used to be Denver". Paranoid about potential radiation poisoning, she is reassured by Stanley that she will be fine. When the hotel she stays at closes after the EMP, she offers to be a farmhand at the Richmond Farm (and write off some of Stanley's IRS debt) in exchange for room & board, although she finds it difficult to adjust to rural life. Eventually, her emotions finally break when she realizes all her family and friends in Washington are probably dead; she is comforted by Stanley. Although the relationship between Stanley and Mimi appears to be stormy, with Stanley's sister expressing dislike and distrust for the IRS agent, romance has blossomed between the two. It is also said that she is divided between going to New York after the country gets back on its feet or staying with Stanley. Despite being from a completely different culture, Mimi reluctantly decides to stay with Stanley.In the episode Winter's End, Mimi reveals that she is in love with Stanley and vice versa.
It is quite obvious that she and Bonnie do not get along at all but Mimi has made more of an effort to try to understand her. She is also looking out for her despite Bonnie's protests. In "Winter's End" she finally begins to bond with Bonnie when she decides to volunteer at the hosptial with the girl, and when Stanley volunteers to go to the town of New Bern for an indefinite period (as part of an agreement with that town in exchange for wind-power generators), Stanley tells Mimi that he loves her, and she returns the sentiment.
