Paula Garcés Joins ALL MY CHILDREN

Paula Garcés will appear on Prospect Park's ALL MY CHILDREN as Lea Marquez.

The character is described by the show as "a smart, savvy, beautiful woman who's devoted her life to a career of fighting crime and bringing down the bad guys. Lea’s career takes up most of her days and nights, which leaves little time for a personal life. That is, until a man challenges her safe, controlled existence and threatens to open up the part of her she'd long since put to rest, her heart."

Garcés is best known to daytime fans as GUIDING LIGHT's Pilar Santos, and is also one of the stars of Lifetime's upcoming DEVIOUS MAIDS.
