Freddie Smith
(Sonny, DAYS)
“I think it’s the community
of people that I work with.
I just always feel really good walking in; the energy’s great, everyone is so nice, professional and respectful — not to say that’s rare, but sometimes it can be. I feel very blessed that they’ve been able to create such a beautiful work environment. I don’t take it for granted. I feel very blessed that I get to go to work and everyone’s happy and having a great time. That really helps our creative process.”

“The people. Right now, I think I’m the luckiest person on TV to be working with Michael [Easton, Finn] and Tristan [Rogers,
Robert].”

Beth Maitland (Traci, Y&R)
“My favorite aspect about my job is that it’s constantly changing, bringing new challenges, new influences and new mental things for me to sort out and share. As I grow and age, my life changes and I feel fortunate that my job evolves,
as well.”

Swickard (Chase, GH)
“The friends I’ve made. The cast is really good people and I give it to Frank [Valentini, executive producer] for
hiring people that people want to be around. Another is the actual work. Every day, I get to challenge myself and experiment and hopefully become a better actor for it.”

Courtney Hope (Sally, B&B)
“The people I work with. One of the most important things about your job is that it really does make a difference if you love or despise the people you work with, and everybody here loves to have fun and play. Yes, they take their jobs seriously but not too seriously and that, especially because of what we do on a soap, is a really big deal.”

Jordi Vilasuso (Rey, Y&R) “The freedom it gives me to spend time with my family. I don’t take daytime television for granted. It’s hard work but I’m able to go home to my kids and take them to school or pick them up from school and put them to bed, which is incredible. I didn’t grow up with that, so it gives me perspective
on what that means
for my kids to
have that.”

Atkinson (Thomas, B&B)
“The ability to live the lives of human beings you could have been, given certain circumstances. It’s always been interesting for me to see how other people live, so by playing different characters I get to explore that, which is amazing.”
