Biography And Filmography: 

Susan Lucci is one of the most famous soap opera stars in the history of daytime television. Soap Opera Digest says her "character is larger than life." She admits that, "Erica is probably the best part ever written for a woman in a soap opera."

In January 2006, she celebrated her 35th anniversary starring on the ABC's Emmy Award-winning "All My Children." During those years, she has seen Erica grow from troubled young teen to international superstar, moving over the years from high-fashion super model to humanitarian to magazine publisher.

Her character has had eight marriages to seven different men. She's been kidnapped, survived a plane crash, chased by a grizzly bear, posed as a nun, driven a race car and tried a helicopter rescue of one of her lovers from prison. Her character gets around.

With sixteen Emmy nominations as Best Actress and many other awards like a People's Choice Award, the Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Lead Actress, the Crystal Apple Award, the People magazine poll as Best Soap Actress, the Soap Opera Digest Editor's Award for Outstanding Contribution to Daytime Television, the Canadian People's Choice Award for Best Soap Actress, and Welfare League's "Woman of the Year", it is clear Erica Kane is as trendy as the show itself.
