Members Darn Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 Hey, I'm trying on find information on an actress that was this show in either the 60s or 70s, Iris Braun. She was my friend's grandmother. Unfortunately he doesn't know anything about the role she had. If anyone knows anything about who she played or has pictures that would be amazing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 @Darn I know that her character's name was Nancy Vallin. I have her in the Secret Storm cast list in the Cancelled Soaps Cast List Thread. I put up info (years, something about the character) , but I haven't found out any more than the character's name. @vetsoapfan may know something about it, I think he helped with some of the info Her husband, Dolph Sweet was on Gimme A Break. I have a list of his roles on soaps if you want. Just let me know 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) I just did a quick Google search and I haven't found any specific years she was on the show, but I did see a magazine from July 1972 that listed her among TSS cast members.

Members Darn Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 Man, you guys are awesome! Seriously in awe... @All My Shadows Thank you! Even knowing that one year is going to make my friend and his family very happy. Apparently she followed her time at SS with a stint on Broadway. @slick jones Thank you! Yeah my friend was telling me about his step grandfather Dolph (I forgot the affectionate name they had for him)! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 I was a big-time soap watcher way back then, but unfortunately, neither the actress' name nor the character ring any bells. I can say that she must not have been a major player, or lasted very long, because I would have remembered her, or been able to find some references of her in my soap-history books. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 Thanks for trying, I was able to pull another detail from my friend, she was only on the show for a year. Also he's biased but said she looked like a young Elizabeth Taylor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 I have several soap-history books, and she's not listed in any of them. Googling her name produces no results, either. I found an obituary for a woman with the same name, who died recently and was in her 90s, so the age might fit, but they referred to her deceased husband and it was not Dolph Sweet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 @vetsoapfan I found that obituary as well and I don't think that's her (the commenters don't match the names any of his family members that I know). Thank you again. I'm visiting him sometime this year and will try to get a picture of her around the time she was on the show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted January 9, 2017 Members Share Posted January 9, 2017 That's a good idea. I'll probably recognize the photograph if she played a significant part on the show, even for a year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted January 10, 2017 Members Share Posted January 10, 2017 Based on reading the history of television show...it seemed like Sudan was the more fascinating of the three Ames children...and certainly evolved over the years..yet the show wrote her out in the last few years...and kept Amy...who seemed kind of boring/dull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted January 11, 2017 Members Share Posted January 11, 2017 Jada Rowland, an original cast member, was very sweet as Amy Ames, and her charisma continued to make the character appealing, to me at least. even when the writing was not great. Of course Susan, depending on who was playing her at the time, was a wonderful character who should not have been eliminated. fans did not approve of the Ameses being axed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
