Additional Comments: Unfortunately, in April 2009, my VCR died and I was unable to record any soaps anymore. I never ended up taping soaps again and somehow drifted away from them. That doesn't mean however that I forgot some of my favorite charismatic actors from there. It's been a little while that ATWT had been canceled, but I looked up the final episode on YouTube and was saddened to see that he wasn't there (at least I didn't see him). What happened to his character as well as the actor?

Sorry that I have been out of the loop this long. I had become disenchanted with soaps but at the same time I miss the "faces." Doesn't make sense haha.

I recently posted somewhere above about a short produced by ATWT alumni. It was Jon Lindstrom, with Cady McClain. They used the voices of Julie Pinson and Billy Warlock.

According to his IMDb bio, he has no children & was married only once, to Y&R's Eileen Davidson (1997-2000).

They don't credit him w/The Good Wife, but with a role on Blue Bloods, where he played a judge. I remember that episode well.

He has also been doing a lot of writing over the yrs.

One of his upcoming projects is one w/Wendie Malick (?) called Finding Hope. That is listed under 2011.

PS: Davidson dumped JL after having an affair w/her present husband & getting pregnant w/her son. eom

Well, I guess Y&R won't be offering him anything in the near future. eom/kk

Rosebud1: You're right about the show he played a judge on. It was Blue Bloods rather than The Good Wife. But I'm pretty sure he had two children with an Asian girlfriend, unless those kids are hers from a previous relationship. LyndaL

LyndaL: JL has always been very involved in children's charities. It is quite possible that what you saw was a photograph of him w/kids from an event. His official bio mentions nothing about having kids. Magazines & online sources often don't have accurate descriptions of who is in photos. eom

Craig came to an understanding with his newly-discovered son, Gabriel, who went back to the fictitious country where Sierra lives. Rosanna sort of forgave him for causing the car accident that put her in a coma. As far as him, personally, I think he's recording an album and is involved with Cady McClain/Rosanna, even though he has two children with another long-time girlfriend that he apparently dumped. Cady McClain calls Linstrom her boyfriend. He had a small part as a judge on The Good Wife a few months ago.
