Sharon Case assumed the role of Sharon Collins on Young and Restless in September 1994, meaning that her milestone 30th anniversary is right around the corner.
Pearl Anniversary
Over the years, the Daytime Emmy-winning star (she took home the prize for Outstanding Supporting Actress in 1999, and has racked up multiple other nominations not only in that category but as Outstanding Younger Actress and Outstanding Lead Actress) has become one of the most popular actors in daytime, beloved to Y&R fans for the heartfelt and gripping performances she has turned in.
Case has seen Sharon through a whole slew of life events, from marriages (to Nick, to Jack, to Rey, even to her former father-in-law, Victor) to mental health crises, from the joyous births of Sharon’s children to the devastating loss of Cassie, from the forging of rich friendships to the soapy fun of her on-screen rivalries. For many viewers, it would be darn near impossible to imagine a Genoa City landscape without Sharon as a key player.
