In this special episode of The Locher Room, we looked back on the extraordinary life and career of Eileen Fulton, the woman who brought As the World Turns’ unforgettable Lisa Grimaldi to life for nearly 50 years.

Eileen was a true trailblazer — one of daytime television’s first complex, modern women. Her strength, wit, and glamour redefined what a soap heroine could be and made Lisa Grimaldi one of the most iconic characters in television history.

Five Oakdale favorites — Don Hastings, Ellen Dolan, Gregg Marx, Hillary B. Smith, and Colleen Zenk — came together to share memories, laughter, and heartfelt reflections on their beloved friend and co-star. Together, they celebrated Eileen’s humor, professionalism, and the lasting impact she made on her colleagues and fans alike.

A moving tribute to a daytime legend whose light continues to shine brightly in the world she helped create.
