Seeing the name Pamela Shepherd reminded me of something/someone.

Before Pamela and Dr. Will Vernon were engaged, there was someone who worked at Llanview Hospital named Robin Crosley (or Crossley). I think that she was a nurse, but she may have had another job.

I am wondering the name of the actress who played Robin.

This actress was also on a Woolite television commercial.

Slick Jones or anybody else, do you know who played her?

Nurse Robin Croseley was played Linda Watkins

Thanks for sharing that interview. Loved it!!

Does anyone know if Judy Pace was actually on the show? I know Wiki isn't reliable but it lists her as having a role in the 70s and I was wondering who she played.

[amybrickwallace]

I looked, but couldn't find anything substantial. Her daughter is Julia Pace Mitchell, who played Sofia on Y&R from 2010-12, and the product of her first marriage to Ironside co-star Don Mitchell.

I think that you are right, Slick Jones, about the name of actress Linda Watkins. However, I do not think that she is the same Linda Watkins that is listed at IMDb. The IMDb Linda Watkins appeared to have been much older when she died. The Linda Watkins who played Robin was a youngish actress.

Now, about Judy Pace, I had read that she had played a role on One Life to Live. I do not know if that is true or not. One role that she MAY have played is a role that I have seen mentioned, but I have no idea who played her.

Josh Hall had a girlfriend named Bernice. He was trying to make money in order to impress her. Does anyone (Slick Jones?) know who played Bernice?

[amybrickwallace]

I did some digging around, and Bernice Munson was portrayed by a white actress named Kelly Houston. She was indeed paired up with Larry Fishbourne's Josh Hall in 1976. Ms. Houston wrote a touching tribute to Al Freeman Jr. after his passing.

For some reason, the site won't let me post the link, but her comments were posted on a website called blackthespian.com, after an article announcing Mr. Freeman's passing. So go there, or google it, and you'll see what she had to say.

The legendary Elaine Stritch, who was the second actress to play the mother of Mortimer on One Life to Live, has passed away at the age of 89.

[amybrickwallace]

She was larger than life!!! I also remember her guest spot on L&O in 1992 as a defense attorney who butts heads with Michael Moriarty's EADA Ben Stone. That was the same episode where Jerry Orbach made his debut as Det. Lennie Briscoe. Those were the days, my friends!!!

Ok I missed the Wilma Bern days. I saw Elaine's stint on YT. Eileen Heckart was first? Did Eileen play Wilma when Alex found Carlo and wanted to change him into Carlo to fool people??
