Happy 51st Anniversary, GL!

Original cast members Theo Goetz (Papa Bauer) and Charita Bauer (Bert) put the soap in soap opera, on an early 1952 episode.

On June 30, 2003, Guiding Light celebrated 51 years of continuous television broadcasting. To commemorate the occasion, we at the official GL Web site asked you, the fans, to write in and offer your congratulations to daytime's longest running drama!

Everyone who wrote in (and remembered to include their mailing address), will receive a complimentary set of Women of GL (and ATWT) Trading Cards. Plus, out of the hundreds and hundreds of entries that we received, we've randomly drawn one name to receive a personal, 10-minute phone call from Ricky Paull Goldin (Gus), Paul Anthony Stewart (Danny) or Laura Wright (Cassie).

And that winner is: Tanya Rogers of Dublin, GA.

Congratulations! We will be contacting you shortly with details of your phone call.
