[on her on- and off-screen chemistry with Anna Lee, who played Lila Quartermaine]: Anna Lee had the glamour, classiness and refinement that a star should have. I never addressed her other than 'AnnaLee,' all in one word. The biggest surprise about her was her earthy sense of humor. The language didn't match the beauty and the character of her grand dame of the show. Because she played Lila for so long, she felt protective of the character's image, as well as her personal image. Those of us who have been on the show for so long have many mutual memories - a birthday party, a divorce, a baby shower - we would tromp all over someone's house to celebrate and be together, just like a real family. Being Lila Quartermaine was being important to 'AnnaLee.' Hide

[Of Anna Lee]: Absolutely, she did! She was so beautiful and funny. Oh, my God, she was funny. She had a bawdy sense of humor. And of how many women, she stayed on that show for so many years, and well, well, well, with an older woman, which she was on, and still, they could shot her so tight with such beautiful close-ups, because, she had such [well, not only], a beautiful face, when she continued to having as she aged, but the beauty and the light within her, in her spirit, it just truly say, 'A Star Shines.' She is the perfect example of that! Hide

[When asked if Anna Lee had been like a 'surrogate grandmother' to her on General Hospital (1963), from 1978 to 2003]: I have great respect and admiration for Anna Lee personally and professionally. She was always a pleasure to spend time with both on and off the set. I still think of her often and I feel blessed to have experienced her friendship and her amazing sense of humor. I miss her beautiful smiling face. Hide
