So the prosecution is required to share exculpatory evidence. Is the defense required to share damning evidence?

Actually, yes, that is why a defense attorney doesn’t ask certain questions. He can’t give client/lawyer confidential information. However, if he comes into physical evidence, he is required to disclose it as an agent of the court.
