When Kim was trying to open Rae safe with Frank’s birthdate, they gave Frank's birth year as 1946 – so , Andrew Robinson was 4 years older (born in 1942) -- and Geoffrey Pierson would have been 3 years younger (born in 1949)

Thanks. Maybe it's just me, but I always thought Andrew Robinson looked slightly younger than his age.

I didn't really see him being in his mid-thirties, either (and he did seem younger than Michael Hawkins - and that was a good thing!) Sometimes it adds to the longevity of an actor's career if he looks younger than his actual years.

Yes - and even though he is now in his early 70s, AR still has somewhat of a boyish air to him.

It's hard to believe that Frank in his 70s! But really most of the characters are getting up there around that age.

Wow, Yvette Deas looks just like her dad. Thanks for sharing the photos!!

This is Andrew Robinson's daughter, Rachel. She played his niece (Kathleen's daughter) on RH when she was little (he sat and played with her and Little John on the floor) and also did one of the most acclaimed episodes of ST:DS9 (The Visitor) in the 1990s, where Andrew was recurring.

Great clipping! Thanks for sharing.

Justin Deas' daughter & Andrew Robinson's daughter -- since the children of actors (and actors' wives Molly McGreevey [Earl Hindman's wife],Jody Catlin [Justin Deas' wife], Sandy Gabriel [John Gabriel's wife], and Joan Kaye [bernard Barrow's wife] made appearances during the earlier years of Ryan's Hope -- did the show continue to have children and spouses on during the later years of the soap, too?

Daytime Digest seemed to be very far behind in reporting the stories. This November issue was probably on sale by early fall -- but those stories are all from spring.
