Guiding Light

Police Captain John Craig 1978 also knew Bill Bauer from years ago. Did the same actor play him in 78?

[slick jones]

He may have, it would make sense, but not positive.

[DRW50]

I was listening to a podcast about the actress Helen Wood, and there was a brief mention of her being on soaps. I didn't see any of these credits for her on  IMDB - I assume whatever they were were small roles, but I was just wondering if there are any listings. I did search but didn't find them...sorry if I missed it.

[slick jones]

I did a quick check at two of my radio sources and she voiced on THOSE WE LOVE (Elaine Dascomb).

I didn't see any tv roles and I don't recognize the name from television soaps-- then again, @Paul Raven and @jam6242 turn up names I've never heard quite often.  I'm going to do a quick dive in my radio binder tonight for a couple of other actors, so I'll see if I have anything on Ms. Wood.  I'll profile her for Hoppers. there are a few non-soap radio roles I found as well.

 

[DRW50]

Thanks so much. I appreciate all your research and your quick response.

[slick jones]

I'll post her tomorrow with the others in Hoppers. If any tv roles pop up, I'll add them here as well.

 

[jam6242]

@DRW50Do you know whether that was from early in Helen Woods' career, or later? 

[DRW50]

It was mainly mentioned in passing as part of her credits alongside the Ed Sullivan Show appearances and her dancing, so probably around the late '40s or early-mid '50s (she went to Hollywood for a while in the early '50s so not that point)

[jam6242]

Thanks, at least that narrows it down.  Haven't had any luck so far though.

[DRW50]

Thanks for looking, I really appreciate it.
