Actress Doris Belack, who played roles in a number of daytime soap operas from the mid-1960s to early 1980s, died of natural causes in Manhattan on October 4 at age 85.
On ONE LIFE TO LIVE, she played Anna Wolek Craig (1968-1977), her most famous daytime character. She was also seen as Madge Murray on ANOTHER WORLD (1966-1968), Claudia Howard on THE DOCTORS (1980), and Beth Bryson on THE EDGE OF NIGHT (1981).
In primetime, Belack presided numerous times on LAW & ORDER as Judge Margaret Barry, and made guest appearances on EVERWOOD, SISTERS, THE GOLDEN GIRLS, and numerous other shows.
Belack's feature film credits included Tootsie, in which she played the exasperated producer of the soap opera within the movie.
Her husband of 65 years, Tony Award winning producer Philip Rose, died just four months ago.
A joint memorial for Belack and Rose will be held October 17 at noon at the Ambassador Theater. It will be open to the public.
