Full Elizabeth Hendrickson Biography
Elizabeth Hendrickson (born July 3, 1979 in Northport, New York) is an American actress, best known for her roles on the ABC soap opera All My Children.
In 2001, when All My Children head writer Richard Culliton wanted to set up a murder storyline, he created the character of Mary Frances Stone (referred to onscreen as "Frankie" ). She was set to be the lesbian girlfriend of Bianca Montgomery (Eden Riegel) and be killed in 3 months. It was deemed unlikely that a homosexual pairing on the soap would be successful, but fan reaction to the Bianca and Frankie pairing was unprecedented. Unfortunately, the Culliton murder storyline couldn't be rewritten, so Frankie was killed and Bianca's mother, Erica Kane (Susan Lucci), was seen standing over her corpse holding a gun.
This prompted uproar in the soap opera community and producers quickly thought up a way to bring the actress back to the show. Rather than re-writing Frankie's murder, writers created her identical twin sister, Mary Margaret Stone (referred to as Maggie onscreen), in 2002. Maggie quickly became instrumental in solving her sister's murder.
Storyline tension was created when it was revealed that unlike Frankie, the character Maggie was not gay. This, however, did not stop Bianca and Maggie (fondly referred to in soap circles as BAM) fans from becoming very vocal about their support for the couple. After several heterosexual pairings involving Maggie did not work on the show, writers began to develop a deepening relationship between the two characters. Eventually Maggie kissed Bianca, moments before Bianca's lover, Lena Kundera (Olga Sosnovska), walked in.
A popular role for Hendrickson, she portrayed Maggie until February 2005. Onscreen, the character of Maggie exited Pine Valley with Bianca, traveling with her, and her daughter, Miranda, to live in Paris. In late 2005, it was revealed that Maggie and Bianca had become lovers off-screen during Bianca's visit to Pine Valley. In real life, Hendrickson and former castmate Eden Riegel have since separately moved to Los Angeles, and are pursuing other acting ventures. However, Riegel recently returned to All My Children and was part of a major storyline in 2007. Hendrickson also returned to All My Children in January of 2007 for a short 3-week stint. Her last airdate was February 7, 2007 when her character, Maggie Stone, returned to Paris.
Since leaving All My Children, Hendrickson has earned guest starring roles in the television shows Medium, Cold Case, CSI: Miami and an uncredited role in Criminal Minds. She was to guest star on an episode of Criminal Minds titled Doubt on April 25, 2007, in the role of Katie, but the episode was pulled in deference to the tragedy at Virginia Tech and similar subject matter in the episode. The episode has now become the Season 3 premiere.
Offscreen, Hendrickson became the subject of soap opera gossip by dating fellow soap actors like Jonathan Bennett, Agim Kaba and Jacob Young. |
