Search for Tomorrow

Re Janet Collins

Will 81's post in the Search thread has confirmed that Marion Hailey was cast as Janet in 65 and not 71 as often published.

I believe that Millee Taggart was the only Janet once the character returned in 71.

@Paul Raven from our friend

 

Barry Lake was the writer under and then after Irna Phillips

[slick jones]

CAPITOL

Leslie Barber     Lauri Landry    1983  Woman that slept with Trey 

[dc11786]

Barry Lake may have been a writer, but I believe Paul Raven is referencing a character found in an episode teaser that were posted in some newspapers at the time. I think Barney Lake was a criminal character. Unfortunately, I don’t think I know where my “Brighter Day” episode summaries are. 

[jam6242]

@dc11786 is correct re Barry vs. Barney (and now I'm thinking about Bunny Lake, lol).  Found these brief synopses from 1957:

 

Barney Lake delivers a warning.

Barney Lake offers Lenore Bradley some free ammunition for a "battle of the sexes."

Barney Lake reveals the source of his bitterness.

Eileen McCallion...Renne Jarrett 1969     + Miguel Garcia

Big Jack McCallion...George Martthews 1969 bigoted father of Eileen; worked for Randolph Construction; died of a heart attack.

Estelle Mulvey   Sheila Coonan    1969   Eileen McCallion's aunt, moved her to Poughkeepsie after Big Jack's death   

Miguel Garcia...Raul Julia...1969    +Eileen

 

 

 Winsor went out on a limb with Mathews' character of "Big Jack" McCallion, a Randolph construction worker who was an unabashed Irish Catholic bigot. Jack fumed when his daughter Eileen (Renne Jarrett) befriended Miguel Garcia (a yet unknown Raul Julia). Jack soon died of a massive coronary and Eileen's aunt Estelle Mulvey (Sheila Coonan) moved her to Poughkeepsie with her,

LOVE OF LIFE 

 

Lee Kurty played an earlier role on "Love of Life" as well -- a far more sympathetic one. She played Nancy Frazier Newman, wife of bigamist Dean Newman (Jack Ryland) who briefly married Tammy in 1968.
