My Parents Were Both From Extremely Different Backgrounds. My Father's Italian, My Mother Was Of Swedish Descent. They're Both First-generation Americans.

I Married Somebody Who Is Very Secure. He's Been In My Corner From The Time We Met, And We Grew In This Together.

Life Goes On, And I'm Moving On To The Next Thing, But I Hope The Soaps That Are Still Running Will Thrive. They Have Millions Of Loyal Viewers.

I Really Always Felt That I Was Going To Be An Actress. I Had A Lot Of Confidence In The Fact That I Would Do Well From A Very Early Age. I Didn't Know How Tough The Business Is.

I Want You To Know How I Feel About My Italian Heritage, So I'd Like To Say A Few Words In Italian: Verdi, Pavarotti, Dimaggio, Valentino, De Niro, Giuliani. . .
