Susan Lucci (Erica AMC) is the mother of Liza Huber (Gwen PSSNS)

Kim Zimmer (Reva GL) is the mother of Jake Weary (ex Luke ATWT)

Michael Storm(Larry OLTL) is the brother of James Storm (also Larry OLTL and Gerald DS,Mike DRS, Neil Y&R,Bill B&B)

Can you think of performers (past and present) who have/had a brother/sister/son/daughter etc who have also appeared on a soap?

Deidra Hall's real life twin sister Andrea Hall Granger (spelling?) played Marlena's evil twin sister in the 80's, Samantha and also returned to the show awhile back as Hattie.

Weren't there 2 child Marquette brothers on soaps in the 90s? One playing Sharlene's son on AW and one on OLTL?

Oh, and 2 Beecroft brothers as well?

Mother and son Anna Lee (GH) and Jeffrey Byron (OLTL, PC).

Also, back in the 80s, didn't Stephen Nichols' son appear on Days as child Steve?

Sean Kanan and Steve Burton are cousins.

Father and son on Ryan's Hope were Michael Hawkins (the original Frank Ryan) and Christian Slater (DJ).

And the two Hall brothers, I forget their names...one played Joey on OLTL.

Bruce Michael Hall played Joey on OLTL, and he also played Reese on Passions... his twin brother Seth took over, when the character went from contract status to recurring.

This is not necessarily blood ties in real life but I know that Vincent Irizarry and Marj Dusay have played mother and son on two soaps (I believe they are GL and AMC)

Yep, and they appeared on three soaps together, though they were not related in the one instance. (Though Marj's character killed Vincent's character's uncle long ago.) That was Santa Barbara. Marj was Pamela Capwell Conrad, CC's first wife and Mason's [and crazy Elena's] mother. Vincent played Dr. Scott Clark. BTW, SB is also where Vincent met and married first wife, Signy Coleman, who played Celeste DiNapoli, Scott's teenage love.

^Eh, Vincent and Marj's chemistry doesn't even compare to the chemistry Vincent had with the original, better, and definitive Alexandra Spaulsing - Ms. Beverlee McKinsey!

Speaking of McKinsey, her son Scott McKinsey is a director on GH.
