I was thinking more of the original cast members, so I stand corrected 🙂 Prinz did leave the show early on but did come back for sporadic appearances and all the same, she's 94 and I wish her good health.

How about Rosemary Prinz?

ATWT: Elizabeth Hubbard Dies at 89
R.I.P. What a legend, and such a versatile actress. Loved her supporting (but nuanced and unforgettable) role in "I Never Sang for My Father."

Tonya spoke frankly too about her experience at Carnegie Mellon and why she left - I'm thinking of two other ATWT alums who also went there: Judith McConnell and Ming Na Wen.
-
As The World Turns Discussion Thread
It was interesting to hear Tonya's perspective on Marland's tenure, but too bad Alan didn't delve a bit more into her comment that it made for a tense environment - that TPTB was paying attention to actors' life off-stage and incorporating that into the show. I heard it more broadly as affecting other stories as well.

Soap opera suicides
Andy Dixon (ATWT) was briefly paired up with school friend Kathy Evans, who had a drinking problem and got him into drinking as well. I don't remember all the details, but Kathy got depressed and overdosed and almost killed herself. That episode coincided with Kim's "Patterns" TV talk show that discussed this social problem and ended with a PSA.

ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
The debut novel of Greta Lind (AMC - Kate Kennicott) "Split Open" came out earlier this year and a few of her close friends held a virtual launch party on Zoom that is now available on YouTube. There was a brief mention of her time on AMC and castmate Michael Brainard (AMC - Joey Martin) showed up also. (The two reunited recently in a 13-episode podcast/drama-series called The Ernie Pyle Experiment that Michael wrote, co-produced, and starred in. It was a finalist in the 2021 Audie Award of the Audio Publishers Association, Drama category.)

Soap Hoppers: The Soap Actors And Roles Thread
I'll have to look up that movie then. I was familiar with Prof. Ben on Queer as Folk. Then last weekend in a rerun of Friends I realized that this boyfriend of Phoebe's is the same guy... I do recall also his sporadic appearances on Y&R.

This might be stretching it - how about Robert Gant - David Sherman in Y&R, son of Katherine's lawyer (Mitchell). Quite a few nighttime serials and also cable Queer as Folk.

ITA! Such easy chemistry among the 3 of them after all these years - memorable, vivid details from their reminiscence. Glad to hear about Marland and Calhoun, and grateful that Scott talked about Liz Hubbard and Gregg about Eileen.

Bailey Chase (ex-Chris, ATWT) was on CBS S.W.A.T. last night (season 3, episode 18).

^ I remember that about Bob! Larry Bryggman also went through phases of mustache. Oddly enough I'm somewhat neutral about him with or without it.
-
As The World Turns Discussion Thread
I can't imagine Michael Swan without a mustache, but IMHO the best one in soap-dom was Joel Crothers (Edge of Night - R.I.P.) - though he was clean-shaven, I believe, in Dark Shadows. The late Dennis Parker (Edge of Night) was another good one.

Soap Actors Famous Relatives
^ Amazing - I did not know that. (FWIW, Jenny Harris and David Faber have been married since Jan 2000 - ten years before the show was axed.)

Soap Actors Famous Relatives
Marie Masters' (Susan - ATWT) two children (fraternal twins), Jenny and Jesse, have done quite well. Jenny Harris worked for a long time for CNN as a producer before moving on to Reuters TV. Her husband is David Faber, CNBC analyst/anchor. Jesse Harris is a singer and award-winning composer -http://www.jesseharrismusic.com/

^ Thank you for the link to the article. In all of her photos regardless of age there's an inner calm and serenity that radiate from within and as such, Hays will always seem ageless to me.

^ Speaking of Kathryn Hays - thank you for linking the article about her house back in February. That article actually came out in December 2017 and the house finally sold in April of this year. (The property address was in the photo caption.) It sold way below the 2017 listing price (40% cut) and, based on open source information, the house was first listed in summer 2011, about a year after ATWT went off the air. By the time the article came out in 2017, the listing price had already been cut quite a bit. I realize that we like to bring up the longevity genes of ATWT vets in this thread, but I truly and sincerely hope they are enjoying their retirement with whatever means they have. Here's a short video of Hays from 2011 talking about her Mom's final days at a hospice:
