Ann Williams

Ann Williams

Ann Williams (May 18 1932December 13 1985) was an American soap opera actress. She was born in Washington, D.C.

Among her notable soap roles (such as stints on "The Doctors" as the first Dr. Maggie Fielding; and "The Edge of Night", in which she played television station owner, Margo Huntington Dorn), her most memorable is a decade-long stint as head character Joanne's sister, Eunice Gardner Wyatt #2, on "Search for Tomorrow" (1966 - 1976). Her character was a vixen at first, but she reformed when she found the man who truly loved her. However, that happiness was relatively short-lived, as she was shot by her deceiving husband's mistress. The writers of "Search" informed Williams that she would be written out of the show, and was killed off in this manner.

Her last soap role was as alcoholic June Slater on "Loving", a role which reunited, if for a short time, Williams and her former Search co-star, John Cunningham.

She appeared on the Broadway stage in "The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore" (1963) by Tennessee Williams and the musical "Applause" (1970).

Death

Williams died from cancer in 1985, aged 53. She was survived by four children, Amanda Welch, Liz Welch, Daniel Welch, and Diana Welch.
