Commented actor and producer David Michaels, "I applaud the Smithsonian for realizing that daytime television is a great part of American culture." Susan Seaforth Hayes, the only actress to have appeared on the soap since its beginnings, tells ET, "No show lasts forever. No job lasts forever, and yet we have been given a half century with the American public."
