From the AWT site.
AWT News:
"Now Irna Phillips was a terror. She was a bitter, spiteful old woman. We didn't get on at all. In the first place I didn't agree with what she was doing as a writer. She thought people were either saints or sinners, they were all good or all bad. And I thought they were a mixture. So she was always screaming at me on the phone that everything I was doing was wrong. But the ratings suddenly began to go up."
Last week, WeLoveSoaps.com featured a two-part interview with Harding Lemay, Another World's Headwriter from 1971 to 1979 and its Story Consultant from 1995 to 1997.
The two-part interview(with part three to come) is available to read on WeLoveSoaps.com or to listen to on the weekly podcast, We Love Soaps Radio.
Interesting to say the least. The man knows how to dish the dirt.....and apparently Jacquie Courtney(Alice Matthews Frame) was a lousy actress who never memorized her lines and Connie Ford(Ada), well let's just say she was one salty broad. |
