Ellen Parker
Ellen Parker (born September 30, 1949) is an American actress, best known for her role as Maureen Reardon Bauer on Guiding Light, which she played from 1986 to 1993.
She first became known in television circles by playing Ethel Kennedy in the miniseries Kennedy in 1983. She replaced Ellen Dolan in the role of Maureen in 1986, and played the role for seven years until Jill Farren Phelps fired her due to middling focus group results. Her firing has proven to be controversial to this day, and her death scenes earned her a Daytime Emmy Award in 1993. Parker returned to the show in 1997, 1999, and 2004 for flashback scenes and moments where Maureen appeared as a spirit.
