Gillian Spencer (born December 18, 1939) is an American soap opera actress and writer.
While Erika Slezak would become famous for this part, Gillian and Lee Patterson (Joe Riley) were fan favorites and the show's first major romantic couple.
From 1972-1975, she played As the World Turns's Jennifer Hughes, Kim Stewart's sister, Bob's third wife and Frannie's mother who died after being hit by a motorist.
Daisy (Palmer's first wife) was originally presumed dead and used the alias "Monique Jonvil" to befriend Nina in college.
In 1997, Gillian made a guest return to "As the World Turns" where the spirit of Jennifer appeared to her ailing sister.
