He was also on Central Park West for as Dr. Kyle Rose. Margaret Whitton was on SFT as Claire Hart before her junkie role of Joan Dancy on TD Theresa Saldana was on AMC as Cristina Vargas--I think she had something to do with Pierce Riley Billie Allen was Jessica's mother on ATWT--I think her name was Louise Griffin Abe Vigoda was Leonardo Coronal on OLTL and Santa Barbara's Lyle DeFranko and DS as Ezra Braithwaite HAPPY NEW YEAR PAUL RAVEN---THANKS FOR THE LIST!

Members DRW50 Posted January 1, 2017 Members Share Posted January 1, 2017 Cristina was his jungle love - I think they'd had a baby that died, unless I'm mixing that up with the Shannon and Duncan story on ATWT. He left the show to help her. Alice Drummond also had a small role on DS as a nurse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted January 1, 2017 Members Share Posted January 1, 2017 AD was also Iris's aunt Myrtle Benson on AW (by her mother, Sylvie. She was Myrtle's sister.) On RH she was Susie Simpson, and ATWT where she played Duke Kramer's Grandma Edith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted January 1, 2017 Members Share Posted January 1, 2017 Abe Vigoda also appeared on Santa Barbara for 7 episodes (per IMDB on the number, I remember the rest) in 1989 as a bumbling hitman named Lyle DeFranco, who shot Sonny Sprocket/Mason Capwell during Sonny's wedding to Gina. (He was connected to Bernardo 'Bunny" Tagliati somehow, the reluctant mobster who had a thing for Gina.) This would usher in Mason's coma, where he saw lost-love Mary Duvall and...God, as played by Brian Frons. (And the actor that played Bunny, Joe Marinelli, would play an odd Joan Crawford in heaven.)
