I'm not a Y&R fan, but congrats to Ms. Linder on her Star on the Walk of Fame. Just out of curiusity, who are the other daytime stars who've gotten them? Susan Lucci is one, I know. I'm thinking it's John Beradino (Dr. Steve Hardy, GH) and MacDonald Carey (Dr. Tom Horton, Days) but please correct me if I'm wrong.

Jeanne Cooper (Katherine, Y&R) got one, too. It's interesting that out of the four daytime actors who got a star on the Walk of Fame, three are from Y&R.
