- In 1965, Grimes made headlines after she had been beaten and injured twice in four days by what were described as "white racists". According to a report, Miss Grimes said she believed the attacks were related to her association with several black entertainers and recent appearances in public with Sammy Davis Jr. who was said to be staging a nightclub act for her.
- Mother, with Christopher Plummer, of Amanda Plummer.
- She named her daughter Amanda Michael Plummer (born in 1957) after her character in Noël Coward's Private Lives.
- Originated the title role in the Broadway production of "The Unsinkable Molly Brown".
- Replaced E.G. Marshall as the host for the "CBS Radio Mystery Theater" in 1982 (the final season of the program).
- My agent asked would I like to do a musical. I said, 'Of course I would.' He said, 'Well, I've got the part for you.' So I read it, and I thought she was a stupid girl. She loved society. She just wanted to be social and have a lot of money. And I said, 'That's not very sensitive or tasteful' or whatever. So I told my agent, Baron Polan, that I didn't want to play it, and he grabbed my shoulders and he shook me a little bit on Fifth Avenue and said, 'Do you want to be a star or don't you want to be a star?' And I said, 'I want to be a star.' TG -- about her star-making role in "The Unsinkable Molly Brown"
- [from an interview in 1960] I never looked like an ingenue. I don't want to be America's sweetheart; I'd rather be something they don't quite understand.
