Members soapfan770 Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 Whatever happened to Laurie Heineman on AW? She won an Emmy for Lead Actress beating out colleagues Wyndham and McKinsey yet never did another soap again and disappeared in the '80s. She had done ATWT before AW, yet it strikes me as odd someone could beat out the best of daytime yet vanish afterward(Hello Lila Kedrova and Mercedes Ruehl!)

Members SFK Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 ROYA! God rest her soul, she was Erica Kane and Tina Clayton rolled into one, I loved her as a kid, that gorgeous, exotic face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 Yes, that, and I want to see the Bob/Kim/Jennifer saga on ATWT. And the stories with Sara and Charlotte and Kit Vested on GL. Even the bit they showed of Nancy's Dorian on Daytime to Remember was staggering. And she went on to play a very different role on ATWT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 Good question. She was also there at the Emmy broadcast I mentioned earlier with all of the past best actor/actress winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 When SPW interviewed her in the late 90s she said she found less and less acting work she enjoyed, so she became a therapist. She also said she had to just wear a dress she had, as she couldn't go to wardrobe since she no longer worked at AW. She also had to submit the few reels she had bought before she left (when she said goodbye to Alice and when she told someone she had once been a prostitute). She said she thinks they created the supporting actor/actress categories the next year because of her win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 I remember watching that at WoST, the way she fell apart on the stand. I'm afraid that we missed some REALLY great stuff with her on OLTL. What I'd give to see that episode where she gave a big party and replaced Eugenia's portrait, unveiling one of herself while Viki was bedridden upstairs. Then Dorian shat a brick when Viki surprised the crowd and descended the stairs in a gossamer white gown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 Ah now I want to see this stuff, I've always been curious about 70s OLTL, mostly about Pinkerton's run and early Viki vs Dorian, but this makes me even more curiouser.

Members soapfan770 Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 That's funny because the following year Irene Dailey won for Lead Actress, even though Dailey was more fit for a Supporting Actress nom than a Lead Actress one(Suzanne Rogers was the first Supporting Actress winner) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 It makes you wonder if someone just really, really hated Beverlee McKinsey and Vicky Wyndham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeeeDee Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 Kristina Wagner is very underrated. You're right that she isn't Meryl & she's Laura-Lite in a lot of ways but they don't make them like her anymore either. Sharon Wyatt can do it ALL. She would've made an awesome Melinda Cramer.

Members SFK Posted March 20, 2010 Members Share Posted March 20, 2010 This is purely speculation, but I'm wondering if LH's tape showcased that subtle, austere '70s woman who was more in tune with the tastes of the time. Iris and Rachel, I mean, those ladies were an experience, maybe a little too much for some judges? Who knows... Well as long as she didn't have to work with a character named Chrissshhhunnn.
