I thought that the original Jerry Ames on The Secret Storm was Robert Morse.

 

[Paul Raven]

Variety mentions Trask as joining the show in the Feb 10 1954 issue and in their review of the show on Feb 3 lists him in the cast .

So maybe he was Jerry for only a few episodes in the premiere week? Then Robert Morse took over?

[slick jones]

Makes sense to me. 

[slick jones]

found out Lou Steele also appeared on LOL in 1966. I figured Kathleen McGuire is Kathleen Maguire of TD,OLTL,3STH,FITW,WotW and AWA.  Added in all these to the SS lists...thanks again, Paul!

[Paul Raven]

Re Woman With A Past.

Geraldine Brooks took over from Mary Sinclair in May 54.

[slick jones]

Are T.R. Randall of Love is a Many Splendored Thing (Billy Garrison) and Trip Randall of Love of Life the same actor? Just wondering, as both were child roles...

[robbwolff]

Not sure if she's already on your list, but did you catch Josephine Nichols as Mrs. Glendennen (spelling?), an ornery patient who meets up with Julie Forrest on "The Doctors". It was the 12/31/69 episode. Ten years later, Nichols would play the role of Kate Marshall on "Texas."

[slick jones]

I have to add this week's cast to the Doctors, but I did have her written down
