In the early 1960s Agnes Nixon, then head writer for Guiding Light, tried to sell a property called All My Children to NBC, then CBS, then NBC again through the auspices of sponsor Procter & Gamble. Despite her Guiding Light success and sponsor support, it was not until the start of 1970 that her brainchild finally aired. After a slow start. All My Children rose to the top of the ratings in 1978 and has remained near there ever since. 
Set in the town of Pine Valley (though initially the state was not revealed, by the 1990s it was said to be in the state of Pennsylvania), the initial drama centered around the well-to-do Tyier family headed by Charles, a doctor, his spoiled wife Phoebe, their grown children Ann and Lincoln, and grandson Chuck, whose father, Charles Tyier II, had died years earlier. Their lives were spun off track by the arrival of charmer Nick Davis. Nick had had an affair previously with Lincoln's wife Amy, which resulted in the birth of a boy, Phillip Brent, who was being pawned off as Amy's nephew (Amy's sister Ruth and Ruth's husband Ted Brent were raising the child.) When the truth was disclosed, everyone handled it in different ways. Amy left town in disgrace, Phillip ended his relationship with Tara Martin and went off to fight in the Vietnam War, where he was presumed dead, and Phoebe became a lush when Nick decided to marry her daughter Ann. While Phil was gone, Tara married Chuck Tyier, even though she was pregnant by Phil. Her father, widower Dr. Joseph Martin, wed Ruth Brent after Ted died in a car crash following an argument with Nick. Joe and Ruth became the most stable couple in Pine Valley for the next two decades, although she was briefly tempted by David Thornton. But for Tara, the revelation that Phil was alive meant not a reunion for her but a usurpation of their romance by the one and only Erica Kane who to the legions of All My Children fans, she has been the quintessential vixen of fiction. Her first victim of seduction was Joes son and Tara's brother Jeff Martin, whose child she aborted in favor other pursuit of a modeling career. She asked Jeff for a divorce when she got involved with agent Jason Maxwell, but Maxwells death, which resulted in a high-profile murder case in which Jeff was charged and exonerated, left her with a bad reputation. That's when she pounced on Phil, with whom she had a miscarriage that resulted in a mental breakdown. By the time she recovered, Erica found that Phil wanted a divorce so he could marry the newly free Tara and reclaim his natural son Phillip Jr., which eventually happened. (Phil died in a plane crash in 1979, Tara wed Jim Jefferson and left town with Phil Jr.) Erica could forget about getting Jeff, too, as he found bliss with nurse Mary Kennicott until her murder prompted him to leave town for a time. Jeff returned later and had an unsatisfactory marriage to Dr. Christine Karras.

But Erica had plenty of suitors in her future. Erica's mother Mona, who had accidentally killed Jason Maxwell, was ashamed of her daughter s antics, but saw little wrong in seeing Charles Tyier, who was weary of Phoebe's actions. Ann Tyier had an even more problematic relationship. Nick asked her for a divorce, fearing that he was sterile and unable to be a good husband for her, which led Ann to marry Joe Martins lawyer brother Paul while being pregnant with the unknowing Nick's child. Nick then married fellow dancing instructor Kitty Shea and had a child by her even though he still wanted Ann. When Ann was left mute by an accident, Nick claimed that she was planning to divorce Paul, which convinced the latter to do so and wed Ericas modeling pal Margo Flax. But Ann's pregnancy by Paul prior to the divorce, and Margo's desperate attempts to keep Paul, including a secret face-lift (which actress Eileen Letchworth had in real life, letting the show tape postoperative scenes), eventually led to Paul going back to Ann in a pleasant union until she died from a bomb planted to kill Paul. In the meantime, Kitty Shea left Paul for Lincoln Tyier, and Nick now had no one to use. Kitty and Lincoln's marriage faced much opposition from Phoebe, who thought her son wed beneath his class, and Phoebe hired Myrtle Lum to play Kittys long-lost mother. But Myrtle ended up having maternal feelings for Kitty, especially when they learned Kitty was dying. After Kitty passed away, Lincoln's grief disappeared when he met Kittys twin, Kelly Cole, whom he wed after she was cleared of murdering her cruel manager Eddie Dorrance, a deed actually confessed to by Margo Flax's daughter Claudette Montgomery on her deathbed. Line and Kelly left Pine Valley a very happy couple. Another contented duo was Dr. Charles Tyier and his new wife, Mona Kane, although their marriage left Phoebe Tyier aghast and alcoholic. So did Chucks marriage to teenage hooker Donna Beck and the romances of Phoebe's niece Brooke English with both Mary Kennicott's brother Dan and criminal-type Benny Sago. Brooke found happiness with neither, so Benny wed ditzy Edna Thornton, whose ex- husband David tried to kill her after she returned to town with their daughter Dottie. The Benny-Edna coupling failed because Benny carried a torch for Donnas sister ex-whore Estelle La Tour and wed her after Estelle divorced her trashy pimp, Billy Clyde Tuggle. Estelle later died and Benny raised their adopted daughter Emily Ann.

But the most elaborate romantic entanglements on the show in the late 1970s involved—who else?—Erica Kane. After an engagement to Nick Davis, who got cold feet and left town for a while, she wed ex-football player Tom Cudahy and saw her modeling career hit high gear. One fan was cosmetics executive Brandon Kingsley,  who made her his new love after Tom, disgusted by her favoring work over family life, left her. Brandon's wife Sara and daughter Pamela were not thrilled by this development, but had nothing to worry about, as ever-ambitious Erica found a new lover in Kent Bogard, whose father Lars owned a larger rival firm. However, Erica did not walk down the aisle with Kent. 

Ericas ex-husband Tom had a devious brother named Sean who was the lover of Devon Shepherd, the daughter of nervous divorcee Ellen Shepherd. Devon survived the affair and relocated to St. Louis with her rather colorless husband, Wally McFadden. But Ellen had a tougher relationship with Mark Dalton, a man 10 years younger than she who was an ex-fling of Ericas (she left him when she discovered he was her half-brother on her dads side). Ellens insecurities led him to sleep with Brooke English, who ended up marrying Tom Cudahy. The 1970s ended on several happy notes. Ruth and Joe Martin become parents of Joey Martin, while reassuring a boy they adopted named Tad that he would be just as loved as the new addition to the family. Tads seedy natural father Ray Gardner earlier had been a nasty thorn in the Martinses' side, having raped Ruth and demanded sole custody of Tad, but he was arrested and, a few years later, died in a bomb blast. And even Phoebe found a new husband when con man Langley Wallingford found to his surprise he loved the cantankerous matriarch.

Another new addition in 1979 was the arrival of aristocratic Palmer Cordandt, his somewhat creepy housekeeper Myra Murdoch, and his overprotected daughter Nina, who, to Palmer's chagrin, caught the fancy of Dr. Cliff Warner. Palmer broke up Nina's marriage by having Cliff's past flame, nurse Sybil Thorne, confront him about fathering her son Bobby, but this was temporary, because Sybil was murdered by Sean Cudahy. During the murder trial, Nina was astonished to learn that her mother, Daisy Cortlandt, whom she believed to be dead, was in fact alive and living in Pine Valley. To complete everyone's shock, Myra acknowledged that Daisy was her daughter. Around the same time, Palmer successfully wooed Donna Tyier from her husband Chuck, leaving the latter to wed Carrie Sanders, whose dad Kurt was being treated for beating his wife Leora. But Donna and Chuck had a one-night fling, and when Chuck learned of his being the birth father of the child, called Palmer John Cortlandt, he and Donna reunited briefly while the senior Palmer suffered amnesia, then tried to win back Daisy's love.

In 1982 other Pine Valley residents seemed to suffer major calamities. The marriages of Ellen Shepherd to Mark Dalton and Nina to Cliff were on shaky ground, the former due to Mark's affair with Pamela Kingsley and the latter to Ninas obsession with Steve Jacobi. Ellen and Mark divorced following her miscarriage and his subsequent drug addiction. Mark wed Brooke English, then left her as she began seeing bon vivant Gilles St. Clair. Nina and Cliff split for a time, with the latter dating Devon Shepherd briefly, but the real kicker came when a deranged Nina tried to shoot Donna Beck as the latter wed Benny Sago. Nina became institutionalized, leading to another divorce and later a second remarriage for her and Cliff. As for old good-time girl Erica, she had to deal with the arrival of Silver Kane, a somewhat homely girl who was Ericas half-sister and eventual nemesis as she tried to steal Erica's current boy toy Kent Bogard. Erica fought Silver, then went undercover as a nun (!) when charged with Kent's murder before Silver was found to be an impostor and sent back to California. She then left modeling, started her own cosmetics business, and collaborated in more ways than one with writer Mike Roy on her autobiography, Raising Kane. One wonders if and how they got everything in one installment! Erica did not settle down with Mike Roy but did give matrimony another shot with movie producer Adam Chandler, who maneuvered Mike out of her life. Several developments emerged after Erica lived with Adam on his estate, among them the existence of Adam's retarded twin brother Stuart, Ellen wedding Adam's nephew Ross Chandler, and the emergence of the family feud with Palmer Cortlandt, who was the natural father of Ross. Palmer, rinding himself in financial straits, was desperate enough to work for Adam in 1984, then married Cynthia Preston the next year in a disastrous union which made him realize Daisy was the only woman for him.

Also in the early 1980s, Tad Martin became a major character, albeit a flawed one. Tad "the Cad" slept with both Liza Colby and her amorous mother Marian. An enraged Liza took up with Cliff while her mother dated Zack Grayson, a quack who became the enemy of most of the town due to his blackmailing ways and ended up slain by Marian Colby in self-defense in 1985. As for Tad, he got his just deserts by marrying Dottie Thornton, only to learn that Dottie was not carrying his child. His new true love, Langley Wallingfords daughter Hillary Wilson, wed Bob Georgia until learning he was not terminally ill, as she had been led to believe. She and Tad finally wed in 1986. Unfortunately, that same year Tad condoned shyster Wade Matthews s elaborate plan to rob and even kill Hillary's stepmother Phoebe (he was stopped as he tried to catch an airplane out of town dressed in drag), and Hillary, horrified to learn of Tad's complicity, divorced him. He left town to "find himself," but later returned. By this time Ericas hyperactive love life had gone into overdrive. When Adam faked his death to see how faithful Erica would remain to him, she got re-engaged to Mike Roy and dismissed Adam after he revealed his cheap tactic. But Mike was killed, and when Erica strewed his ashes in Tibet, a monk named Jeremy Hunter whom Mike had saved years earlier followed her back to Pine Valley to woo her. It worked, but Jeremy s ex-girlfriend Natalie arrived in town wanting him back and made him think he impregnated her. That was disproved, but when Jeremy, imprisoned wrongly for a murder, refused to escape from jail with Ericas help, she lost interest in him and went after self-made millionaire Travis Montgomery, who wed Erica when he learned she was pregnant with his child. But Erica nearly died giving birth to Bianca in 1988, and it was not until she went through a retrospective other ex-lovers on her sickbed, including Jeff Martin, Nick Davis, Brandon Kingsley, Mike Roy, Jeremy Hunter, Adam Chandler, and Tom Cudahy, that she was able to return to consciousness and become a mother for her first time. Jeremy found that Natalie did not want him on the rebound from Erica, finding more interest in her new job as nurse for Palmer while spying on him for Adam. She began an affair with Ross Chandler which she felt would not lead to marriage, so when Palmer proposed to her, she accepted. Then when Rosss wife Ellen learned of the trysts and left Ross, he went wild and raped Natalie. He later confessed to the crime and went into treatment. Rosss adopted daughter Julie heard Natalies screams and skedaddled to New York City, leaving behind boyfriend Charlie Brent. In Gotham Julie met criminal Creed Kelly and his nephew Nico Kelly, becoming entranced with the latter, while Charlie took up with Phoebe's goddaughter Cecily Davidson. Julie and Nico married, Charlie and Cecily did not. Julie's natural parents were Elizabeth Carlyle and Mark Dalton. The latter had a hellish year in 1987 when his cocaine abuse required friends and family to confront him until he went into treatment. Then Mark worried he contracted AIDS from the late Fred Parker, a man with whom he shared needles. Mark turned out HIV-negative, but Freds widow Cindy contracted the disease and tried to make plans for her son Scott while wedding mentally challenged Stuart Chandler. Cindy did die, but Mark found himself remarrying Ellen Shepherd and reconnecting with his daughter Julie. Some in Pine Valley had prejudices against Cindy for having AIDS, chief among them Adam Chandler's daughter Skye, wed to Tom Cudahy, who nearly killed Cindy in a fire. A repentant Skye then saved Cindy from the destruction but went into a coma, and Tom fell in love with Travis Montgomery's ex-wife Barbara. Skye came out of the coma and tried to kill Barbara before being caught and shipped off to the asylum.

As Tom married Barbara, his brother Sean came out of jail and dated Cecily, over her mother Bitsy's objections. They planned to marry, but when Cecily overheard Sean and Bitsy talk suggestively, she wed instead Nico Kelly, who was a free man when his wedding to Julie was found to be invalid. After a rough initial period, Nico and Cecilys romance blossomed, and they eventually left Pine Valley as a happy couple. Not doing as well as a duo were Erica and Travis. Floundering in debts and a takeover attempt from his ambitious brother Jack and Adam Chandler, Travis faked kidnapping Bianca. When the plot came to light, Erica, very much disturbed, took Bianca to Sea City, where Erica disguised herself as a diner waitress. When Travis saved Ericas life there, she was ready to forgive him, but he became an amnesiac and romanced his ex-wife Barbara before she wed Tom. The fact that Barbara was pregnant with Traviss baby was known and accepted by Tom.

Meanwhile, Ericas real half-sister Silver Kane came to Pine Valley and entranced Jeremy. But Natalies attraction to Jeremy, and vice versa, soon emerged, and an enraged Silver died after a struggle with Natalie. Natalie's ex-husband Palmer tried to blackmail her into marriage by covering up the incident, but Natalie was exonerated anyway and wed Jeremy in 1988. Their bliss was short-lived, though; another ex-love ofJeremy's, Marissa Rampal, arrived with their teenage son David, ready to stake a claim on him. Their difficulties were nothing next to what Palmer faced in 1989. His ex-wife Daisy firmly rebuffed his last marriage proposal and left for France. His daughter Nina, who in 1987 wed Matt Connelly after the two looked unsuccessfully for her missing husband Cliff in South America, decided to get together with Cliff for a third remarriage after he learned her son Michael was his and not Matt's, and they left town as well. Then Palmer unwittingly hired his niece Dixie Cooney as his maid, and she left his employ to work as nanny for his rival Adam Chandler. Dixie fell in love with Adam and prompted a bitter divorce between him and Brooke.

However, Dixie and Adam did not wed even though she gave birth to his child. She fell instead for the returning Tad Martin, who saw her on the rebound after being dropped by Barbara Montgomery during her separation from Tom Cudahy. Yet another niece of Palmer's, Melanie Cortlandt, arrived and fell for David Rampal until he was emotionally destroyed by his mothers death following a spat with Natalie. Melanie then dated Trask Bodine and later Charlie Brent, the son of Phillip Brent, while David dated Ceara Connor, a niece of Myrtle Fargate's who was a victim of incest. However, David s dad Jeremy was the one who ended up marrying Ceara, while David and Melanie wed instead. By the start of 1990, Palmer finally got the upper hand. He surprised Adam by announcing he owned the latter' s business, causing Adam to have a stroke. Then Palmer found a successful love life by wedding Opal Gardner, and managed to break up Dixie's marriage to Tad, whom he hated. Tad slept with Brooke, resulting in a son named Jamie, while Dixie took up with scummy old Billy Clyde Tuggle, who returned to town to start a relationship with Emily Ann, his daughter by Donna Beck. Emily Ann's discovery that she was Billys daughter led to her marriage with Joey Martin going on the rocks. But Billy did far worse damage by trying to rape Dixie. Tad eventually fought Billy to the latter's death on a railroad bridge, but Tad's fall left him with amnesia and he left town.

Meanwhile, Erica was as active as ever. She planned to wed Jackson Montgomery, but Bianca wanted her mom to stay with her father, Jackson's brother Travis, which Erica did until news about Traviss affair with ex-wife Barbara reached Erica and she began seeing Jackson again. Travis found out and sued for custody of Bianca in his divorce of Erica, which he got. Feeling that Jackson had let her down, Erica went after Charlie Brent, who was the son and grandson of two of her former boyfriends! Charlie's grandfather Nick Davis came to the wedding and convinced Erica she did not love  his descendent. Instead, Erica made an even worse decision by wedding ex-husband Adam Chandler. Prior to this reunion, Adam was in a love triangle with Natalie and new police detective Trevor Dillon. He and Natalie wed after she had an argument with Trevor, a decision they both regretted. After their divorce, Adam wanted to get back with ex-wife Brooke, but she now dated Jackson. Even worse, the latter two nearly died in a car wreck with Arlene Vaughan and her daughter Hayley. Arlene, who was drunk when behind the wheel, was Adam's old flame, and Hayley was the product of their affair. All parties survived, and Hayley learned to love her newfound father while dating Trask Bodines brother Brian. As for Natalie, she and Trevor faced more trouble when her estranged sister Janet "From Another Planet" Green came to town and made efforts to seduce Trevor. When that failed, she imprisoned Natalie at the bottom of a well and imitated her in an effort to fool Trevor up to their wedding day. A rich man named Dimitri Marick saved Natalie, and Janet was arrested. But that did not mean Trevor and Natalie were ready to reunite, for Janet revealed in her jail cell she was pregnant with Trevors child, while Natalie felt compassion for Dimitri for saving her life. Natalie and Dimitri got engaged, but unfortunately, Dimitri s mother-in-law and housekeeper Helga found his long-missing wife Angelique and brought her home.

Angelique was not the only unexpected arrival in Pine Valley in 1992. Tad Martin returned, although he had been convinced by Napa Valley vineyard owner Nola Orsini that he was her missing son. When he regained his memory, he found that Dixie had been married twice in his absence. The first was to con artist Craig Lawson, whose plans went awry when his ex-girlfriend Gloria Marsh blackmailed him. (He did, however, get Dixies brother Will to engage in crimes against him, which led Palmer to disown his nephew). The second was to Brian Bodine, who offered to help raise her son Adam Jr. For his son Jamies sake. Tad wed Brooke, but a miscarriage led to their divorce. Tad and Dixie remarried.

By this time Erica had yet another man in her life— Dimitri Marick! As he attempted to take over her business, love flowered between the two, but he still felt he had an obligation to Angelique. Complicating matters was the arrival of famed reporter Edmund Grey, who learned that he was Dimitri s brother. Helga tried to put a stop to Grey's claims, even to the point of imprisoning Erica in a crypt before Helga herself died. Edmund helped his brother gain the confidence to wed Erica, while having his love life undergo stress by wedding Dr. Maria Santos in 1994 while still carrying a torch for Brooke English. Adding to the complications, Maria found herself pregnant by ex-boyfriend Del Henry, who also turned out to be Dixie Martins brother! But while Ericas new marriage should have put her at ease, her life was anything but smooth. A young girl named Kendall Hart showed up in Pine Valley and stunned everyone by announcing she was Ericas daughter, whom Erica put up for adoption at age 14 after a rape. Erica felt a whirlwind of emotions as Kendall tried to find her birth father as well, culminating in Ericas temporary insanity, a rape flashback, during which she attacked Dimitri, in part because Kendall had said she was similarly assaulted by Dimitri s ward Anton Lang, who was in fact Dimitri s son. Then Kendall became vicious toward Erica, writing an expose on her and even perjuring herself during Ericas trial for stabbing Dimitri, to suggest that her mother meant to kill him. Worst of all. Ericas beloved mother Mona died in 1994 (actress Frances Heflin had died in real life). The death hit Erica so hard that she jumped onto her mothers casket. Kendall, who had been jailed for perjury, later got out of jail and left town. Other story lines in the early 1990s revolved around despicable Will Cortlandt, who raped Gloria Marsh and wed Hayley after she fought with Brian and he wed Chinese immigrant An Li to keep the latter from being deported. W^hen Will was found dead in 1992, Brian went to court and was defended by Livia Frye, whose teenage son Terrence had been through an earlier trial of two Caucasians who beat him brutally in a racial attack. The real murderer turned out to be Janet Green, who had left the hospital before delivering her baby, planning to kill Will in the belief it would somehow win Trevor over. She went back to jail, where she gave birth to Amanda, whom her sister Natalie claimed as a ward as she and Trevor wed. Sadly, Natalie died in 1993 from a car accident, spurring her son Timmy into drug addiction. The other passenger in Natalies car during the crash was Adam Chandler. He was going with Natalie to confront Laurel Banning, a woman in love with Jackson Montgomery who had been embezzling from the community center where Natalie worked. Paralyzed from the waist down after the wreck, Adam brought in Alee Mclntyre as his business operator, but Alee wanted control of all of Chandler Enterprises, including Adams wife Gloria. Alee fathered a boy who grew up to be Tom and Livia Cudahys foster son Jamal, who sued to stay with the Cudahys rather than be with Alee. But Alee did seem to be winning over Gloria, who planned to divorce Adam until she learned she was pregnant with his child. 

In 1994 Tad Martin, injured in a tornado that destroyed the Martin home, had a near-death out-of-body experience, seeing his dead sister Jenny, deceased pal Jesse, and his evil father Ray Gardner. He emerged stronger than ever in his business life as a producer of Ericas new talk show on WTRCW, only to find complications in 1995 when ex-flame Liza Colby returned as his superior at work and temptress of his soul. Also returning to Pine Valley was Brian Bodine, in an effort to drive a wedge between his old love Hayley and her new boyfriend and eventual husband Mateo Santos, and Janet Green, in a face remade by plastic surgery. Alas, the physical change did not alter her devious mind-set. The front-burner story in 1995 was the love affair of Julia and her tall, dreadlocked boyfriend Noah Keefer, whom she met in a shelter following the tornado. Raped there by a junkie, she had an abortion and passed an HIV-test scare, while Noah stood by her. They wed in 1996. Another, more controversial story line that year was the revelation by teacher Michael Delaney to his class that he was gay, prompting a possible expulsion of him and much dissension within his family, especially from his homophobic brother-in-law Trevor. For true All My Children addicts, however, the big event of 1995—96 was probably what happened to Erica. Her new role as a local talk show hostess went downhill when her drug dependence, exacerbated by the careless medical treatment of Dr. Jonathan Kinder, made her into an addict who, supported by Dimitri and Bianca, needed treatment at the Betty Ford Center. Susan Lucci was splendid in her pre- and posttreatment scenes, and pundits predicted she finally would win a long-desired Emmy for her work. But she did not, incredibly for a record 16th nomination with no victories. Who says long-running soap operas occur only on television?
