Interesting.

I'd never before seen the last name of the third Laura character (the mystery blonde).

Also I never knew who the actress was.

 

fyi, Lisa Fanjoy is also known as Lisa Williams.

 

Lisa worked on DAYS as the body double for actress Eileen Davidson -- whenever Eileen played more than one character in the 1990s (Kristen Blake DiMera, Susan Banks Crumb, Sister Mary Moira Banks, Thomas Banks, and Penelope Kent).

And again when Eileen returned to DAYS 2012-2018 (Kristen and Susan).

 

Lisa has also worked on DAYS as the body double for actress Stacy Haiduk for the characters of Kristen Blake Dimera and Susan Banks.

 

She has also been on DAYS as a body double for Deidre Hall for the characters of Marlena Evans-Black and Hattie Adams.

 

Eileen Davidson has instagrammed about her as a BFF from all the years she played her body double, and Eileen refers to her as Lisa Fanjoy.  Jason47 refers to her as however she appeared in the DAYS credits (usually Lisa Williams).

 

I never knew she played the 1982 mystery Laura on GH 

who had a resemblance to Laura Vining Webber Baldwin Spencer (now Collins).

 

Above info edited for clarity.

 

EDIT to add:
Lisa Williams Fanjoy also played Brady Pub waitress "Lisa" on DAYS.

I have to give props to @depboy, who made his way through 1982's online episodes researching the Masterlist.  He found her last name for us.

 

I didn't realize it was the same actress as Lisa Williams from Days.  When I finish the batch of soap profiles I'm working on, I'll add her to the next batch.

Thanks for the heads up! @janea4old
