  1. Hi Roger & Damon!

    This is about a week late, but I wanted to mention that Rosemary Prinz (ex-Penny/ATWT, ex-Amy/AMC, ex-Julie/How To Survive A Marriage, ex-Sister Mary Joel/Ryan's Hope) was born in NYC on 1/4/1930 & still works consistently on theatre stages around the country.

    Brian :-)
