Casting and creation
Susan Howard was cast in the series in 1979. She was recurring in season 2 and 3, before becoming a regular in season 4. In 1986, Howard won Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Actress in a Supporting Role on a Primetime Serial for role. In 1987, the show's producers opted not to renew her contract, stating that her character had run its course. Howard has claimed this decision was connected to her opposition of what she saw as pro-abortion storylines involving her character.
