Have it ever happened to you when you saw a movie and you see an actor/actress and you know you know him/her from some place but you can't put you finger on it? And then you find out he/she was in OLTL. Sometimes it happens backwards when you see the show and you say to yourself: "I'm sure I saw this actor/actress before". Here you will find what the all the actors and actresses that were in OLTL did before, while and after they were in OLTL.

If you see the word Help! That means I couldn't find anything else the person did besides his/her role in OLTL. If you have a picture of any actor/actress I don't please tell me or if you have a picture of someone from his/her time in OLTL also tell me. If you like to add a role, a person or anything else just drop me an E-Mail and I'll get back to you.
