You could contact SAG/Aftra and maybe they have some information about her? Or you could contact GH. Call up and see if anyone helpful answers the phone and can look up who she played?

Twitter FV and maybe he could find out? You never know who would be willing to help.

Months ago, I posted some "cards" I did (post #871) and never got around to posting some of the others that I made. In case anyone is interested, here are a few.

That's terrific.

Yes, the Joan Blackman issue is a mystery. She was quite a name actress at the time,so puzzling that her role would never be listed. If it was just a guest spot,then why would she appear in a cast photo?

Seeing the men all suited up with flowers in buttonholes has me thinking it must have been a wedding being taped?

Maybe her character was a relative of the bride or groom?

Paul Raven, you're a genius! The outfits the cast are wearing are the same as in a photo taken from Lucille March's marriage to Al Weeks!

Genius? Ok I'll accept that!

Glad I could bring us one step closer to solving this puzzle. The fact that the musical director is in the picture is somewhat random,so maybe Joan was included as she was on the set that day for some reason.

Bear with me, guys!

To follow up on last few previous posts about Joan Blackman, I wanted to post this photo from the wedding of Lucille March (Lucille Wall) to Al Weeks (Tom Brown):

I've seen this photo many times over the years, and when Paul Raven pointed out the clothes the cast were wearing in the cast photo I posted before, I immediately realized that the cast photo was taken on or about the same day the wedding scenes were filmed. Looking at the two photos, you can see Diana, Peter, Sharon and Jane are wearing the same clothes in both. Now to the mysterious part.

The photo from the wedding scenes are posted online on various sites as being shot in 1974. But I looked in a copy of Daytime TV Super Special (No. 1, dated 1973) and according to them the wedding of Lucille and Al took place in 1971. Which would correspond to the date that Joan Blackman was listed in a script from September of '71. Also, Indus Arthur is in the cast photo, and by all accounts that I can find, her character of Brooke Clinton was gone by 1974 (although Arthur isn't in the photo from the wedding scene).

Lastly, and I didn't notice this until last night, and I shared with slick jones in a PM, that I believe in the wedding scene photo, Joan Blackman is seated next to Peter Hansen (Lee Baldwin). In the past, I've always assumed that the woman next to him was Anne Helm, who played Mary Briggs, RN. I don't know much about the Briggs character other than that she was a nurse, her husband was in jail when she came to town and she "dated" Lee. Anne Helm is listed to have been on General Hospital from 1971-1973. Now, this is pure speculation on my part, but could Anne Helm have replaced Joan Blackman as Nurse Mary Briggs?

Here's Blackman (circa 1970) and Anne Helm (circa 1972):

Thoughts?

I'm thinking that Joan was a temp replacement for Anne and if it wasn't for those few references,like many others she would have gone unreported and unnoticed.

I also looked up George Wright to see if he had any connection to Ms Blackman and found out he is a highly respected musician.

Summary of an episode around 68?

, Dr. Griffiths is opposed to Dr. Hardy's recommendation of Dr. Tracy Adams as the hospital's kidney specialist because Adams is a black woman. Dr. Brewer gets a phone call from Jessie while Polly is in the room with him. Griffiths and Hardy confront each other about Adams and her qualifications. Hardy says he'll resign if the hospital board rejects her. Meanwhile, Polly shocks Brewer with her announcement of sincere affection for him.

Laura is what's missing from their current "storyline". Laura and the heart she brings to the story...

This first patient is beautiful. Is she from primetime? Patsy Rahn holds her own as Monica.

They really de-aged Diana when BB took over...VS is great. Adam Streeter...never seen him onscreen before...

I didn't realize Lesley v Monica was around this early. At 3 minutes in Diana is talking to Mrs. Endicott, the woman who took away adopted son Mike. I swear I know her voice/ face from daytime...How I miss Gail/Lee...young Laura

Husband Dr. Peter Lindsay, who was divorcing her 1966

Jimmy, young patient of Steve Hardy Dec. 1963

Was wondering about cast names, pictures, or story info if possible. Thanks
