What role did Robyn Bernard play in General Hospital?
During her time on the show General Hospital from 1984 to 1990, Robyn Bernard portrayed Terry Brock, a singer wrongly accused of murder on two occasions. Bernard also appeared in films like Diva (1981) and Betty Blue (1986). Her final on-screen role was as a psychologist in the 2002 production Voices From the High School. Raised as a preacher’s daughter in Texas, she initially pursued a career in music with her sister Crystal. Disillusioned by her strict upbringing, she left Baylor University and ventured to Nashville before eventually making her way to Hollywood, where she landed her role on General Hospital.
In interviews, Bernard expressed gratitude for the opportunity to showcase her singing talents on the show and acknowledged how the series incorporated her gospel singing background into her character's storyline.
“I was bitter about all the pressure that had been put upon me,” she said of her strict religious upbringing in a 1985 interview with Boca Raton News. “So I walked to the other side. I have to admit it didn’t do much for my grades. So after a couple of semesters, I quit and went to Nashville.”
