Elizabeth Hendrickson
Elizabeth Hendrickson is an American actress best known for her roles on the ABC soap opera All My Children.
In 2001 when All My Children headwriter Richard Culliton wanted to set up a murder storyline he invented the character of Mary Frances Stone ( refered to onscreen as "Frankie" ). She was set to be the lesbian girlfriend of Bianca Montgomery (Eden Riegel) and be killed in 3 months.
It was deemed unlikely that a homosexual pairing on the soap would be successful but fan reaction to the Bianca and Frankie pairing was unprecidented. Unfortunatly Cullition murder storyline couldn't be rewritten so Frankie was killed and Bianca's mother was seen standing over her corpse holding a gun.
This propted uproar in the soap opera community and producers quickly thought up a way to bring her back to the show. Rather than writing Frankie back to life, they gave Frankie and identical twin sister, Mary Margaret Stone ( refered to as Maggie on screen).
Storyline tension were created when it turned out that this character was not gay.
As of February 2005 her future with the show does not look promising. Eden Riegel ( who Maggie has had a flirtatious relationship with for a few years ) has announced that she will leave the show and several soap opera media outlets are reporting that Bianca will be written out by having her and Maggie go to Paris.
