Are there any photographs of actress Pamela Miller (Jane Fletcher Hays #1 on The Guiding Light, Lisa Miller Hughes #2 on As the World Turns, Rose Gammage on Somerset)?

[slick jones]

@danfling  this was the only one @jam6242 was able to find.

Seeing this again, it hit me that she looks like Pamela Bellwood.  Just checked wiki and it says she was born Pamela Anne King. This must be her!  What do you think?  Could she have played those roles?  Maybe another actress with the same name?

There's no way Bellwood could have played Lisa on ATWT... Could she? Yikes

[Paul Raven]

Pamela King is a different actress. Bellwood is younger(born in 51) which would have made her only 13 when playing Lisa!) She did act under the name Pamela Kingsley

She references her name change in this 1971 article about her appearance in 'Butterflies Are Free' in Florida with Ann Sothern and Beau Bridges.

 Agent responsible for name change "My real name is King, but when I first went into show business, there was already a Pamela King, so my agent added the 'sley' to my name."

[jam6242]

Okay, then I don't think I got the right one @slick jones.

[Paul Raven]

Pamela Bellwood appeared in The Doctors and had a running role on The Nurses (not sure if the primetime or daytime version) so qualifies as a Soap Hopper!

Looking at that photo it does resemble a young Pamela Bellwood, so perhaps she was using her real name as a stage actress and didn't have to change it until she got an agent to get into television,

Do we know what year the photo was taken?

[jam6242]

1963, so guess that couldn’t be her in the pic (assuming she didn’t lie about her age).

Request: Wayne Brady

I feel like you have done him before, but that his name just isn't on the first page yet.

[danfling]

Thank you, Slick, for posting the photograph.  As you probably know, I was asking about Pamela King and NOT Pamela Bellwood.   I am not sure which years Ms. King was on The Guiding Light, but Ms. Bellwood would have had to be a child actress having been born in 1951.

Funny I just saw this listing, as I just got done watching Harring's guest role on Law & Order: Criminal Intent as Marta Caldera in "True Legacy", S9 (2010), a.k.a. the lone Jeff Goldblum-led season, a couple hours ago on cable. Sort of a political Lady MacBeth type.

Also remember her as a mistress to a governor candidate named Paula Houston who gets murdered on Silk Stalkings in Season 5 (1996) in "Family Values". I recall Billy Warlock was also in the episode.
