Today, Leslie Charleson is celebrating a special anniversary milestone.


On August 17, 1977, Charleson returned to daytime television (after a run as Alice Whipple on As the World Turns in 1966) with the role of Monica Quartermaine in the ABC soap opera General Hospital. Fred Silverman, then President of ABC, asked her to join the series, which at that time was near the bottom of the ratings and near cancellation. 



Charleson replaced actress, Patsy Rahn as Monica, a doctor caught between her husband Jeff Webber and his back-from-the-dead brother, her true love Rick Webber. For her long-running performance on the show, she was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series four times in 1980, 1982 1983 and 1995. On August 24, 2010, it was announced that Charleson was being demoted to recurring status. Charleson is currently the longest-serving cast member of General Hospital.




Monica is a cardiologist at the eponymous hospital, and widow of physician Alan Quartermaine (ex-Stuart Damon). Monica becomes Chief of Staff at General Hospital following the death of Alan. 


In her time on the show, Monica has battled breast cancer and dealt with outliving all of her children. She is the owner of the Quartermaine mansion, which she often reminds her family of when they begin quarreling, which is a regular occurrence in the Quartermaine household. She has been known to throw them out of her house.

 In April 2018, due to an injury Charleson sustained, the soap temporarily recast the role of Monica, due to the advanced writing of scripts required for the character; Patty McCormack was announced as the temporary replacement of Charleson. McCormack first aired on May 7, 2018. Charleson later returned and now 
celebrates her 45th anniversary with the show.
