Five Things That Happened On September 7 In Soap History

In 1994, Sharon Case (upper r., pictured with Eddie Cibrian, ex-Matt, l., Julianne Morris Polaha as Amy and Joshua Morrow as Nick) debuted as Sharon Collins on Young and Restless. Two other actresses, Monica Potter and Heidi Mark, had originally played the role. Case had two soap credits to her name at the time, having appeared on As The World Turns as Debbie and, prior to that, as Dawn on General Hospital. The actress recalled to Soap Opera Digest in 2023, "I came in and did my first audition for [Co-Creator/ Head Writer] Bill Bell and [then-Executive Producer] Ed Scott, and after that, they wanted me to come back for a screen test a few days later. I did my screen test with Joshua Morrow [Nick]. He was young and silly then. I felt really lucky about booking this great role, but working with Joshua Morrow all these years was a huge stroke of luck for me."
