She put the famous curse on Luke and Laura after their 1981 wedding. Her appearance made the cover of People, Newsweek, and other mainstream publication. There are also clips on YouTube of her famous soap performance. In these photos, you'll see her with Rick Springfield (Dr. Noah Drake), then-GH executive producer Gloria Monty, and of course Tony Geary and Genie Francis (Luke and Laura Spencer).

Those are great pics of Liz Taylor with the GH cast. Thanks for posting them Monika.

Sure!! I think that Liz is still THE biggest coup a soap opera before or since has ever gotten to guest star.

Thanks for sharing those amazing photographs, Monika. Indeed, GH was definitely blessed by having The Last Movie Star appear on their soap, to incredible ratings...

My pleasure!! Liz was also the wife of Senator John Warner at the time, so with her also being a movie star, what could've been soapier than that?
