Who’s Coming

Beyond The Gates

A longtime GH fan who also watched All My Children and One Life to Live, Ray told Soap Opera Digest during her first run that she had to pinch herself every time she got to work with a new cast member. “I would say working with Maura [West, Ava] and Roger [Howarth, ex-Franco], I was a little bit nervous but by the time I had my scenes with Genie Francis [Laura], it was more fun than nervous,” she reported. “Genie was so sweet and kind and giving, just as wonderful as I thought she would be.” The actress has also appeared on The Middle and True Blood.
