Not much to report on this news item for now, but the official website of Sarah Brown says the actress is coming back to General Hospital.

After five years and three Daytime Emmy wins, Brown bid farewell to the soap opera world in 2001. A couple years after her departure, the actress was asked by Soap Opera Digest if she missed daytime TV. She replied:

"I miss the consistency of being on a soap in a contract role and knowing that tomorrow these are your lines and you're going to wake up and have the opportunity to do what you love."

Following a brief stint on As the World Turns, which ended in March 2005, Sarah now says General Hospital is again in her future. Here's the recent blurb posted on the subject from her site: 11.30.07: Sarah is returning to General Hospital. More details to come...
