- The most recognized soap opera ingénue of her era, actress Genie Francis shot to superstardom as the beautiful, flaxen-haired female half of Luke & Laura on the legendary ABC soap, “General Hospital.” As such, Francis (alongside her equally famous co-star, Anthony Geary), gave birth to American soap opera’s first “super-couple” in the early 1980’s – a genre convention which lived on decades later. While Francis attempted to escape the Laura Vining Webber Baldwin Spencer character several times throughout her adult life, leaving the soap to attend school or get married and have babies, the fans’ unending nostalgia for her character always seemed to bring her back into the daytime fold.
- Eugenie Ann "Genie" Francis Frakes (born May 26, 1962) is an American actress best known for her portrayal of Laura Spencer on the ABC Daytime soap opera General Hospital. She Also Played Diana Colville on the NBC soap opera Days of Our Lives from 1987-89.
