@amybrickwallace Wow!!! That's awesome never knew about this.

I think I still have my dog-eared, worn copy of the magazine somewhere. 😂 The backdrop of soap bubbles was a nice touch.

I don't even remember Cheryl Lynn Brown.

She originated the role, as a child. Blake was still going by the first name of Christina.

Oh wow! That's her?

Yes. I found a couple of screen caps with her circa 1980:

I can't believe that photo of all the Christina/Blakes exists. I can't believe someone (other than a big fan of the show) would think to take the photo. I can't believe they cared enough to find Cheryl Brown. And I can't believe they were able to get them all together for the photo. It's very cool. I wonder what happened to Cheryl Brown? It looks she hasn't acted since she was a child according to her imdb page. 

All I know is at the time of this photo shoot, Ms. Brown was 20 and a student at Kean University in NJ. I'm trying to track down the short article from People that appeared with one of those photos in 1994.

I'm happily shocked seeing this pic, especially with little Christina! Thanks for posting it!

You're welcome! I didn't know if these photos had ever been posted here before. Sherry Stringfield was still on NYPD Blue at the time.

As I said in the other thread, I'd never seen these either. Very cool of them to find the little girl and for Sherry to be a part of it since she was hot in primetime.

Yes! This was early 1994, and of course Sherry would land on ER later in the year.

Unless I am misremembering, I thought it was even more gracious of Elizabeth Dennehy to do it considering how things went down.

I said it earlier, but Elizabeth Dennehy doesn't get enough credit for originating the character in the arch, semi-dark sort of Glenn Close Fatal Attraction mold. She's great in the stuff I've seen, albeit very different from Sherry.

How exactly did it go down?

Well as I said I am wary of misremembering the gossip but basically it was pretty abrupt and arbitrary in the sense of her working for several months before someone upstairs telling her it is not working and firing her despite the fact, as Vee said, she was doing a fine job in the role
Show-business is tough obviously but a lesser person might have been a little resentful and not wanting to revisit a bad memory.
