When I was growing up, I remember my grandmother watching Guiding Light and the one character that always stood out and fascinated me was Alexandra Spaulding as did the actress who portrayed her....Beverlee McKinsey, she was elegant, articulate, beautiful, and talented. When Ms. McKinsey left GL, Alexandra left with her, regardless of whether or not they chose to recast...you simply can not recast perfection.
As a honour to Beverlee McKinsey anyone who has clips of her playing the role of Alexandra Spaudling should post them in her honour, she was and will BE always be the ONLY ALEXANDRA SPAUDLING,what a gift she was to Daytime Television, the voice, the look, THE ONLY ONE..........BRAVO,,
Beverlee will not be doing any RESTING in peace, not the Beverlee i imagine. She will be roaring across the universe before she manifests into something equally extraordinary!!!!!
she was my favourite alexandra too!! apparently she left the show,for personal reasons i.e. she didnt like the way she was handled by cbs and the guilding light bosses..shame for them..she was and it will be the real alexandra spaulding!
Guiding Light was so good at this time--Alan- Michael, Eleni, Alex, Roger, Hart, Jenna, Mallet, Harley, etc.

I agree 100%. Beverlee made GL in the 80s. She was one of the best actresses to ever be on soaps. She was one of a kind.

I always considered Beverlee McKinsey's Alexandra a female Victor Newman - powerful, intimidating, and controlling!

I loved Beverly as Alexandra. I wonder if they have scenes with her fighting with Mindy.
