Rachel Ames, beloved for her role as Audrey Hardy on General Hospital, is celebrating a milestone. The actress turns 91 years old today! On this special occasion, Soap Hub is paying tribute to the life and career of this fan-favorite star.
Rachel Ames Turns 91
Before many of the actresses and characters who populate the GH canvas today were even born, Rachel Ames brought articulate and attractive Audrey March (later, Hardy) to Port Charles. Audrey, a flight attendant/nurse, arrived on the scene to visit her sister Lucille (Lucille Weeks), GH&#;s head nurse.
There was an instant love match between Audrey and Dr. Steve Hardy (John Beradino), but the road to happiness for the pair was fraught with conflict and more than a few medical maladies in keeping with the show&#;s theme.
The devoted nurse grappled with Steve’s devotion to General Hospital, was courted by a wealthy suitor (Randy Washburn), was diagnosed with lymphoma, encountered marital heartbreak, suffered a miscarriage, endured a divorce, helped Steve recover from paralysis, and was stunned to discover her late husband, Tom Baldwin, wasn&#;t dead after all! Ultimately, Audrey survived all of these obstacles, and she an
Rebecca Herbst and Elizabeth Webber have been mainstays in Port Charles and on General Hospital for a quarter of a century &#; and fans have rooted for her all along the way.
General Hospital Needs To Honor Elizabeth The Right Way
When Elizabeth first arrived on the scene, she was a smart-mouthed teenager smoking cigarettes on Audrey Hardy&#;s (Rachel Ames) front porch and it was clear she was carrying a chip on her shoulder then. The question we still ask ourselves 25 years later is why.
As Elizabeth sat in the Shadybrook rec room and told Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom) why she resents her parents so much, it seemed like the tip of the iceberg. Yes, they basically dumped her on her grandmother&#;s doorstep, but they did the same to her older sister, Sarah Webber. Yet Sarah never seemed to feel the same animosity that Elizabeth does towards their parents.
For years, it seemed odd that Jeff Webber (last played by Richard Dean Anderson) and Caroline Webber (who viewers never met) were no-shows in their daughter&#;s life. They never got in touch with their daughter and weren&#;t there for any of her life events, just as she described to Kevin, but we still don&#;t know the real

At the start of the decade, Nurse Audrey March Baldwin (Rachel Ames) returned to General Hospital with a big secret. While she told everyone her baby had died, she was hiding his existence so Dr. Tom Baldwin (Don Chastain) would not contest their divorce. She rekindled things with Dr. Steve Hardy (John Beradino) but things ended when Tom found out his son was really alive and living with Nanny Peggy Nelson (Ann Morrison). Peggy had realized the truth about the baby and tried to blackmail Audrey but she was soon found dead. Audrey was almost convicted of the crime before Peggy’s ex-husband Arnold confessed. Tom kidnapped the baby and left town just as the baby was about to have necessary heart surgery. The baby was eventually returned and Tom was thought killed in Mexico. Meanwhile, Tom’s lawyer brother Lee Baldwin (Peter Hansen) had married Meg Bentley (Elizabeth MacRae). She beat cancer after having a radical mastectomy, but she had a mental breakdown and was committed. After her release she developed high blood pressure, suffered a stroke and died, leaving Lee with her young son Scotty Baldwin (Tony
