All: Soap actors that also worked BTS on their shows

[titan1978]

With the recent Kate Mansi directing going on at GH, I was wondering what other performers also did double duty on their shows? I guess we could also talk about folks like James Hougton that wrote for Bell shows after he appeared in them (he did do double duty on Knots though).

Off the top of my head I think Marie Masters wrote at ATWT while also playing Susan, Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t she do more than scripts too?

Did Gillian Spencer appear on AMC as Daisy while writing there?

Susan Flannery probably stayed at B&B so long because she got to direct there too.

Tony Geary and his writing partner submitted stories for Luke and Laura’s return and the Endgame Cassadine one that he later said was none of what they planned. But that’s not the same as writing for the whole show, or directing.

Apologies if there is another thread about this topic, I couldn’t find it!
