Members wonderwoman1951 Posted November 29, 2023 Members Share Posted November 29, 2023 and, according to her imdb page, ‘love of life’ (1967-8) and ‘secret storm’ (1973-4). not surprising — so very many ny stage actors were on soaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted November 30, 2023 Members Share Posted November 30, 2023 And, she played a character named Phyllis Corrigan on The Doctors, in 1970, so she was in 4 different soaps!! That's from a very reliable poster on my soap group who is a current fan of The Doctors. Yes, bitd the New York soap scene was full of character actors who also trod the boards!!! I'm trying not to be too silly over her death. She was 93 & it was natural causes. And, she had an incredible life! I just really loved & appreciated her work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted November 30, 2023 Members Share Posted November 30, 2023 Reaching back a bit, I thought you might enjoy this piece on Rosalyn Carter. I know this writer because she used to write about only Douglas Marland, once a week, every week. Now she's branching out. https://jenniferkathlengibbons.substack.com/p/rosalyn-on-our-mind 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 30, 2023 Members Share Posted November 30, 2023 The Brookside thread is locked, so I'll have to break here that Dean Sullivan, who was electrifying as Jimmy Corkhill for many years, has passed away.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted November 30, 2023 Members Share Posted November 30, 2023 A large faction of my family would agree more with the take presented in Rolling Stone. There are definitely people who lived in Latin America and the Caribbean, as my family did/do who saw the policies of the U.S. via Kissinger as undermining, if not ruining aspirations of sovereignty and self-rule for many nations in the region. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted November 30, 2023 Members Share Posted November 30, 2023 The Pogues, Kissinger and Rosalynn. What a week. I always go back to Fairytale of New York around this time in the last few very hard years for us all, but especially to the melancholy Bill Murray/Jenny Lewis/David Johansen, etc. version from Sofia Coppola's Netflix Christmas special. But I'll save that for a few weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
