Personal Quote:

[Who said in 1985, when she was signed to do General Hospital (1963), for the first time]: I seriously doubted that they would pick up my option, because my character had a disease - she had lymphoma - and she was supposed to die very soon. But they apparently liked me, so they kept me on, and gradually they forgot about the lymphoma. See more »

Trivia:

When Ames moved to California, she went on stage, acting for the very 1st time, she didn't want to do anything else. See more »
